I had a 1996 E36 and put the engine I to my e30, it's in place and linked up but for ages now we've been having right issues with the wiring and the ECU and ews.
When I say I...it's in a garage.
I've got an ECU from a 1993 e36, now the garage is asking for the matching wiring loom of which I just can't find.
(Because of pin locations on the loom if not matching to that on the ECU)
What I'm Asking is, how have people gone around this pain in the arse of the immobiliser?
The guy at the garage has just chopped it off the loom and is making me search high and low for parts that I just can't get.
Please, anything? Thank you
M44 into E30 now we're stuck!

I had an emulator chip fitted to get rid of the EWS, tried to do it myself but it just wouldnt work, the chip turned out to be faulty so I posted it off to be fitted. Put it in the car it fired straight up.
I would think you would want the later ECU (bosch silver label) I wouldn't have thought a 1993 ecu would work? Is it from a car with a MAF sensor?

Well if go back to the original ECU for the engine and loom, will you "DanThe" be able to sort the ECU out to work?
They say you are good with this stuff so if so can we talk business??
Thanks

If you have the loom and ECU that match the engine, why didn't you fit the EWS as well? Very easy to do.
If the EWS bits are long gone, then I'm sure Dan can sort the ECU for you to run without EWS.
