hgv1 Posted August 3, 2015 Posted August 3, 2015 just fitted ecu kit on our c3 everything works but when i switch radio i get a loud beeping through the speakers any ideas Quote
paul.h Posted August 3, 2015 Posted August 3, 2015 I suspect the radio is not being recognised by the ecu and you will need it programming in using a Lexia. Is the radio the original one supplied with the car or a replacement ? Have you sorted out the temperature problem on the car ? Quote

Is the radio the original one supplied with the car or a replacement ? Have you sorted out the temperature problem on the car ?the the ecu sorted the temp . i put the full kit on bsi board /ecu and barrel .the ecu kit is from another car and you use them as a donor to replace your own .the radio is the original .whats a lexia?regards Quote
hgv1 Posted August 4, 2015 Author Posted August 4, 2015 How much was the ECU kit please.hi i got to from a breaker who breaks french cars .paid £100 which is very good and quite simple to swop over .you have to change the lot so that the immobiliser works etc otherwise you have to get it programmed Quote
paul.h Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Looks as if you also need to swap the radio or get yours coded to the replacement ecu. A Lexia is the dealer diagnostic equipment but low cost Chinese copies are available from ebay that are installed on a lap top. Quote
blondchaser Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 What is the name of breaker please as I think I will have to do the same. You say "Barrel", so is that the ignition barrel and key?? Quote
paul.h Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 It will be the ignition barrel and all the keys - make sure you get at least 2 since they will have the imobiliser chip in them that is needed to be recognised by the ecu. You should also get any door locks to match the key. Before you go down the route of changing your ecu, see what happens after the repairs. You could also post the fault codes on here. Quote
hgv1 Posted August 5, 2015 Author Posted August 5, 2015 What is the name of breaker please as I think I will have to do the same. You say "Barrel", so is that the ignition barrel and key??hi yes you get the ecu plus bsi board that is the one in the glove box with fuses in etc and you get the ignition barrel with key/keys you have to do it right or you can lock the ecu out and it won't work . where are you based ? i will find the number for the breakers for you .there are a few others but they were double or even three times the price this guy charged me Quote
