GIAC ecu coding problems - does this sound possible?
Bought an Abox ECU that had been recoded to be an M box. It's GIAC, has the flashloader, etc. When I put it in my car, I get the following codes:
VAG-COM Version: Beta 510.0-UD
Control Module Part Number: 8D0 907 551 M
Component and/or Version: 2.7l V6/5VT G 0002
Software Coding: 06611
Work Shop Code: WSC 06325
2 Faults Found:
18014 - Rough Road/Engine Torque Signal from ABS: Electrical Malfunction
P1606 - 35-00 - -
18020 - Engine Control Module Incorrectly Coded
P1612 - 35-00 - -
I have ABS and ESP lights on my dash, but the car runs fine. Here's what I think happened, and someone tell me if I'm possibly wrong. The ECU was recoded to run the MAF for an M box (Hitachi), but *probably* was not recoded to deal with the new ABS/ESP stuff for the M box since it was in an A box (2000) car. So, my car will run fine, but I'll just have these codes until I get it recoded as a true M box.
