Re: 16v swap imobilizer issue

Yup its deffo immobilized! ECU number ends 103! Time to look for a 105 or 107. I'm guessing the two wires/pins autodata lists for the air con and give "no test data available or random digital signal" are actually from the anti theft module to the ECU! As why would air con need a random digital sign...

Possible group buy of 340 1.7 bottom alternator brackets

Hi everyone. From what I understand the bottom alternator bracket for the 1.7 340 is not the easiest part to get hold of. Seeing as a lot of us go the 16v route or use other F series Renault engines I thought it might be a good idea to have some made. I've recently got hold of one for my F7P any I'm...

Re: First 340 now getting 1.8 16v swap!

Cheers guys.. hopefully I'll have a phase 1 ecu soon to try... pinned out the loom twice and confirmed every wiring twice against the diagrams so fingers crossed that's all ok!

Polo is a 1977 so pretty old and my Derby is a 1980 making the 1988 340 my newest car at the mo lol!

Re: First 340 now getting 1.8 16v swap!

Well been a while but after spending most of 2011 driving around in the 16v throttle bodied Polo the Volvo didn't get any love! I've still got it and I have just finished wiring her up and I runs.... well kinda as it's probably immobilized via the ECU at the mo!!! Anyway I've got a rust free bonnet ...

Re: 16v swap imobilizer issue

Finally got mine running today! But only for like 5 seconds! Fairly certain it's immobilized.... bugger! I think Chris_C could be right about the 101's and 103's not working without their module and key fob, only 105's and 107's will run without? I'll check my ecu numbers out tomorrow. Interestingly...
