I'll try on her car to check how many slots are left then clear a fault using my old ELM unit and then see if the slots have gone down.
That sounds like a plan.
Hmmm, it turns out I have the kit here to clone an ECU... I didn't realise I have the wires I did in my box of tricks hehe.
So in theory you don't even need a BSI/key. Just an ECU with the same plug count ideally, and possibly hw/sw but I'm sure that isn't important if you make any appropriate changes needed. You obviously also need your original ECU to be cloned.
Not sure how you go on if you only have the security code, that would possibly be a bit more in-depth because I have a feeling the code is encrypted and that just adds more layers of fannying around that probably make it more cost effective to just buy a new ecu/bsi/key!
I'll need to look into this but if anyone needs anything like that doing it's relatively painless once you have the right bits and bobs (quite a few bits and bobs but I already have them so that makes life easier hehe) *and* the original ECU as said.
