Hi everyone,

I’m joe and I’m new to the forum.

 

I bought a mk6 2004 fiest 1.4 duratec cheap as it’s owner had lost the keys and couldn’t be bothered with the car. 

I managed to get the car open with some tools and I went to the scrap yard today to get an ignition barrel, transponder ring, 2 keys with transponder chips and the door and boot locks plus the ECU. 

Now when I put the battery on the car the alarm goes off and when I put the key in the alarm isn’t disengaged and the car won’t even attemp to turn over. I get the flashing immobiliser light ok the dash. Is there anything else I need to do to get this car to start? The scrap car I pulled all the bits off of, will I need to get althing else such as the speedo or anything else?

with the Vauxhalls you have to program the immobiliser to the ECM and then program the keys to the immobiliser. Does something similar need to happen with the fords. Weird thing is that the key, transponder and ECU all came from the same scrap car so they should already be matched up.

many thanks in advance!

To match the donor ecu and keys you'll need the donor car speedo cluster as well as it forms part of the pats2 immobiliser system.

Tbh you could have just used the new lock barrels and then had the key fobs coded to your existing ecu / cluster by an auto locksmith for about £80.
