Default YEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWW :D

5 Days ago, my runabout car (vauxhall omega 2.5 turbo diesel) immobilised itself due to the clicky that disarms the immobiliser packing up


Today I have the car running after bypassing Vauxhalls rather challanging immobiliser with 3 wires

But the point of this thread, is this

I wouldn't of been able to do it without Bosch-Man (Phil) giving me a number for the Bosch technical help line, who very kindly faxed me thru the pinouts for the ECU - immediately after i put the phone down - AMAZING service.

Now this is the best bit


Vauxhall wanted me to spend 143 quid to let them program a new clicky and wotnot, today, it has cost me £5 to fix


i'm happy

Result indeed considering there are no haynes manuals for the car, no wiring diagrams available, and vauxhall will not help one bit

Cheers Doug - I totally forgot you was sending them - i'll copy and return them asap chap


It seems that i have scared a lot of omega owners on the vauxhall owners club website - they are shitting themselves that their "superior impossible to bypass" immobiliser has just been cracked with 3 wires
