The 4g93 Swap Help

10v is a bit low, and it should still start at that voltage. Do you have a charger for the battery, or are you able to jump it from another working/running car
 
it was 8-10v ranging we used the much larger battery from a vw gold gti cant start due to dodge jumper leads.

doing obd we got 54 from the codes

54 is immob system... that's so weird... how do we fix that then

Yewwwwwww haha, i love being right (so far)

Are you 100000000% the key is the right one and you havent mixed it with the other one? try swapping the key and imob (and barrel)

we are 1 million percent sure its the right key (never took it off the ring from the spare)

we are a billion percent sure its the correct barrel and key reader from the lancer

we are pretty certain its the right ecu

and are certain its the correct immob however we will try the other

The only other thing i can think of right now, is that the key reader is damaged (if you said you've swapped in the lancer one?), which would mean it wont be able to read anything so it thinks its broken.

We've tried the mirage one and their is no damage we took it off with care and it looks ok

is there a fuse or relay we need to swap for the ecu or immob?

Nup its literally Imob, and the key to match. ECU obviously too, as 1.5 runs different to the 1.8L. Everything else was more or less plug and play true?

there is quite a large number of things unplugged in the interior. do we need to plug in any to work?
 
So we've given up. I always new my old rage was stubborn but he's really playing up LOL

No idea what it could be we are pretty defeated

we've tried so many combos of immob keyreader and ecu idek anymore
 
RIP.

Well its giving a imob error, so its something relating to that. I bet its the key/key reader not being good, but without being in person i cant tell. You may need to get a new set (key, barrel, imob and ecu) to confirm, but that should only set you back like $50-100. You can put the car back together in the mean time thou

What I don't understand is that it all worked in the lancer and now does not?

So I have to go to the wreckers and get them? ffs

Is anyone is Brissy that can come and inspect. I'd forever be indeptted to them
 
One more thing to try, put the key in, and turn it to IGN dont start it, and leave it on for about 20 minutes. Turn it off, and then try to start it. Apparently thats a way to "reset" the imob and pair it again with its old key.


OBD is throwing an Imob code, so the ECU is not getting a proceed signal from the imob (the imob unit reads the key using the key reader). If something is damaged along the line (e.g the key or the key reader, etc) then it wont be able to read successfully, and it will throw an error, and prevent the car from starting.

so as the key and barrel are ok would replacing the key reader with a wreckers one work?

Assuming somehow that we broke both even tho we were gentle

It would work yeap. I know ive broken one before, gotta be proper delicate. It is only that one key youre trying to start it with yeah? cause i know two of the keys like on the one key chain will cause an error and not start
