They have reached the age thats there is fewer on the roads. Harder to come across for sale or in use. Same as the Freelander. Old school motoring. No or very little electronic sh1t. The JDM didnt even have EGR, where the UK versions had to. The red drop top doesnt even have air bags. And so...

Time is my issue. Havent fecking got any. Ordering a VCU from bells, just need to find a grease monkey to fit it...

Yes. JDM. Japanese Domestic Model. Never released in UK. Similar was released in America with the proper celica headlights. Curren and Celica are the same car. ENGINE, BODY ETC IDENTICAL. Got a slam plate, front bumper, bonnet and wings of a couple sacrificed celicas i stripped. They bolt...

I have 2 celica convertables, a 1994 (red) which is gas converted and needs a wash. and 1997 Silver, A Gen 5 celica Black, A 1996 white Gen 6 JDM SSIII Celica with the red top gen 4 Engine, A Gen 5 25th Aniversary (Greenl , and a 1996 Curren, (JDM celica but with a boot, not hatchback. and...

Okay, my old gal. Lost keys, nightmare to get that sorted, but she ran out if MOT while sorting out the key/immobilzer issue. Northern Ireland, earliest date is November ffs.. Anyway, was watching inline and came across a nice 3 door in the south of england. Way down south. so far down south...

Resurecting this one again. Is it possible to use a torque ratchet on a VCU out of the car. If so does anyone know the torque setting? Rigging it up to work will be fun... Have 2 VCU i need to test. Picked up a new 3 door, and one wheel up test not looking healthy. Or any ideas best way to...

Thanks,but its not the fob issue, its the chip not being detected to allow the key to syart the car.

Thanks, but im still no further forward.. looks lije thus ine is parts. The whol strip it all out and refit, one in a lifetime is enough for me.. I will rry checking the receiver at ignition, but thats just a chance it might be that.

Thanks All. There is a Key and remote fob with the car, Key fits barrel, and turns, does the doors as well. Lights on dash come on, but she wont turn over. Key in ignition and take power directly to starter, she will turn over, but not start. So, if I have the key, and the above happens, how...

Okay. Have a 3 door Freelander one facelift. Lost the keys, landrover no longer supply replacement, and went through hell taking out dash, replacing control units and full set of locks. Was looking for a doner, and come across a lovely black 3 door. Seller states...wont start, immobilizer...

Ah hell. Started taking the dash out, and it's like layers on layers. Sooooo...going to Landrover to order a key........feck it....

He replied very quickly, which bodes well. Recons if i send the door lock and the ECU (he referred to as EWS) he can make a key and code a chip. Even sent me a photo of he EWS so I know what I am looking for. So still got to remove dash, but that's relatively easier than I had feared. Thanks...

Just to clarify, when you say Remove Dash, is this the entire dash or just the binial (Clocks, Display etc) at Drives Steering Wheel? Thanks again.

Thanks I dopped him and email, and currently on knees praying and lighting candles......

I don't have original key to cut from, And Landover (2 Main Dealers tried) reporting out of stock and a long lead time to get. I don't have the original remote fob either (all lost) so if picking up from a breakers, will be trying to get all locks keys and fobs from the donner car. So , if I...

Thanks to all That has been very helpful (And depressing) Another quick note. I am aware that the FOB (To lock/unlock the doors) runs on a different control unit (I think) where is it and how easy hard is it to get out (or if the entire DASH is out is the work already done?) Thanks again.

Thanks. Notice ones on Ebay all came with a Dash. Do I need to replace the dash as well? And how would that affect milage??

Thanks Found a kit on Ebay seems to match. Going to give the house a spring clean in last ditch attempt to find the fecking key.....If I don't find it, ordering the kit of ebay. Don't think a new Uncut or Unprogrammed key will work ,as I don't have an original to cut from, even if they can...

Thanks Ill try that. Anyone able to give details how to fgo about this. Clear on the Physical locks (door, Ignitions, Boot etc) replacement, but how to get ECU out and perhaps some tips on what to look for or be aware off. Thanks all.
