Omega Electrical and Audio Help / 3.0 V6 ECU pinout
« on: 14 January 2025, 15:40:39 »
Hi guys, does anyone have an ECU pinout for 3.0 V6? I'd like to find a wire/s that go from immobilizer unit around the keyfob to ecu. I think that I may have damaged that wire in process of replacing ABS ECU...
I might be also shooting blanks now but I'd like to check this first.
I have found an old thread of a member that had the same problems after replacing ABS ECU.

What's the chance of both pumps being bad? They were both in working order

I get the fuel running if I take fuel hoses on the plenum off when cranking. I also replaced fuel pimp with known good one from my previous v6, just in case. Made no difference

Update....Still nothing new. A mobile electrician who I know will arrive later today, he says he has OBD1 and "My Naff Code Reader" software to check live data.
In summary, yesterday car started after many tries and ran for few minutes then died. Then started again just to die some 10 seconds later.
No EML flashing this time.
Remote sometimes locks/unlocks after 4 or 5 tries, never first time. I took the battery out, recharge it and tried to start the car today, because I came to the conclusion it could be alternator overcharging and making all this weird problems. Spoiler- it didin't start today at all. I do get faint smell of fuel, so the pump is working. But it gets no spark. It has an MOT next month, so I'm really under pressure now. Dealer says original crank sensor is NLA and washed his hands.
Can anyone tell me what to look for when live data is on PC?
Anything will help.
Thanks, Stan

Should this set work? Will remote lock/unlock work if only this is replaced?
