Hi,
I have a 3.0 asn engine from an a4 b6 and I want to start it, the thing is, the engine is not in a car, I’ll be making a cradle for the engine and gearbox, and get it running on that,
Will it run if These are connected:-
1 connect an ecu
2 connect fuel pump and fuel
3 connect battery
4 work out which wires are the ignition and start
Thanks,
Phil.
 
I believe the ECU needs to talk to the instrument cluster which comprises the engine immobiliser. The steering column key assembly has a coil to sense the key immobiliser ID which is synced to the instrument cluster. By no means an expert on this aspect at all - just a high level view on problems you may have.
 
Thanks for the reply, I have done a bit of research on this and I’m going to have to send it someone that can do an immobiliser delete, this then will allow me to start it without the key and dash,
Does anyone cone where I can send it?
Also is there anywhere where I can find the pin outs for this ecu?
Thanks for the help,
Phil.
