just done a 100 mile round trip, stopped a couple of times and then just driven less then a mile since its last stop.
got to mine turned the engine off and it carried on running, caughing and spluttering for a second or 2 and cut out.
went to start it again and it just turns over and one of the engine management lights flashes (car with the spanner) then when i stop cranking it the eml above it just stays on.
ive got the following error codes;
P1481 Fan Relay 1 Circuit High C-34
P1614 Wrong Security Code received Immobiliser C-06
P1615 Wrong Vehicle ID from Body Control Module C-40
P1616 Wrong Vehicle ID from Instrument Control Module C-40

i take it my ecu has just given up? it seems strange that it ran on without ignition being on then this happened immediately after?

WTF do i do now!?!?!?!

Has you key fallen to bits at any point? Sounds like an immoblisation fault

nope, chips in the key and intact. its pretty clear the ecu isnt talking to the bcm or clock modulend isnt reading the key which is why i think it may be internal to the ecu?

just need to know if theres anythin that can cause this other than a completely knackered ecu, maybe loose connection and was that a coincidental case of detonation or was it related to the fault because its never happened before

The transponder hasn't accidently become unplugged has it? If the EML is flashing it will be something to do with either you transponder, ECU or key chip

I highly doubt the transponder plug would have just fell out

Just an idea Its better to check all the obvious stuff before shelling out for a new ECU when it might not be that causing it

Just a stab but could it be a fuse out? or even bad earth somewhere?

This same sort of thing happened to mine yesterday. It was a fuse. Check them all carefully because My mate didn't notice first time

Yea engine would only turn over and none of the clocks worked/any of the lightls like engine management. Switched the fuse and fired up straight away

just had a look in the fusebox everything seems intact. but when you move one of the relays (number 14 according to the lid) the engine starts turning over :s
