still not got it going. there has been three wires cut at the plug down by the ecu, small black conector, connected them up but thats making the engine managment light flash, when 2 of the wires are bridged the fuel pump comes on even without the key, tryed startin it doin this and it was almost starting, but dont think that a good idea

id imagine when u bridge that it is bridging the immobiliser which is normally on the fuel pump! So thats the wires that connect to the chip next to the barrel id say!
