    I have the brake switch, it is OK.
    The thing is my car cranking but not started. Immo padlock warning light is there, reckon it is immo failure. But don't know how to get over this, whether I need to send ecus or wait for this obd plug in immo bypass. Also don't know where to send to, I don't get prompt respond here.

    Trev is on holiday right now I believe. He's partnered with AV Eng, so you can get in touch with them in the meantime and send your ecu's there.

    Fill out your profile so we know where you are.

    As mentioned above, Trev has partnered with AV Engineering in the UK (they did mine) as well as some folks States side.
    So it all depends where you reside.

    They need both ECUs. No need to send fobs or Immo ECUs.
    Throw those away when they're done unless you want to reverse for the next owner.

    depending on where do u want it to be sent to.
    if you are sending it to Hong Kong and let me do the flash, the freight + duty taxes would be around $100-$150. Return would be another $150. U'll have to pay US duty/taxes if applicable( i dont know if you can exempt because it is not like import)
    If you are sending it to UK ( trev360's place), that would be around $100 freight, duty and taxes u need to ask trev.

    in both cases, trev360 would be the guy who's providing with the actual programming inside the ECU

    contact trev

    Last time I sent diagnostic laptop weight 4 kg using ups, door to door service for less than USD 100.
    Any fees for the flash service.?

    Will the Keyfobs and alarm still work with immo removed.
    So left and right ecus are right at the left and right seats, right?

    Today, I was playing with the immo antena, when I put the antena barrel closer to the key, it worked. I removed the transponder chips and stick the chips onto the barrel with scotch tape and removed the antena out of the barrel and just zip tied it under the dash board, still worked. Guessed only the antena is failed at the moment, think the immo still work. Car started everytime.

    theres a custom processing fee of some sorts in hong kong, about $80 maybe. Ask trev360 for the programming fee and then i flash ur ecus for free.

    then I'll send the ecu back to you for maybe another $100. customs of Brunei on you.

    I don't charge any programming fee. You can see it as a forum friend helping you out. But Trev might charge you, I don't know. So contact him first.

    I need 2 things to do the job

    1. email from Trev with the dump attached.
    2. ecus from u, I'll give u name address later once u got a response from busy Trev

    Guys please email and contact AV Engineering.

    Address: AV Engineering, Prestige House, Green Lane, Challock, Kent TN25 4FN

    They have all the information you need. And yes, it can be done so the ecu's don't leave USA (if your usa based). I'm a little bit snowed under right now but I promise I'll be back with some big updates soon. Some really exciting stuff planned actually.

    Furthermore I had the HORROR of being sent an ecu firmware recently (Won't post the tuners name) who did a poor Ferrari 360 owners car. He'd gone and done decats and was getting CEL's. In their quest to turn off the CEL they literally deactivated the entire bloody safety checking, including DOWNGRADING his car to earlier firmware, even Detonation sensing was OFF! Disaster waiting to happen!

    They had basically hacked around an old copy of 1999 US firmware and called that their tune. This sort of works (not really a tune tho!) as the emissions standards allowed more power in usa 1999 cars than later models. I plan to create a tool soon to allow you to verify what your tuner did!!!!! In other words it will tell you if they have disabled all safety checks (engine protections!) but it won't reveal their actual secret maps. Just so you have some comfort they are doing their job properly. Beware there are a lot of tuner ' scammers ' out there...

    I was too lazy to read this entire thread.
    Is there a program that can shut down the immobilizer on the 360?
    Thanks
