Ok..
Seems I may have hit a snag.. not a big snag, but a snag none the less.. The TS50 that I am getting the gearbox and ecu out of for the ESS conversion is a 12/99 build.. My car is 4/99 build.. Now, from what I can see and remember, it seems the TS50 is a series 1.5 and has smartshield.. Mine is a series 1 and has smartlock.. What I want to know is.. If I put the TS50 (series 1.5) ECU into mine when I put the gearbox in, will the car start..? Is smartshield run by the ECU or the BEM or is it a combined thing..? Will I need to convert my car to smartshield to run the TS50 ECU...? Will I need the BEM and key from the TS50..? Will any wiring need to be changed..? Should I just grab the whole lot and change the ECU, BEM, Key and barrel..? Is there anything I have missed..?? Cheers Guys..!!
