Hey! Im. About to buy a new cim(used) into my car. There is a 8 digit number and two letters on the CIM. Does these numbers and letters has to be identical to numbers and letters on my old CIM? Thank you for your help!
Hi Alan, can I ask. If the old Cim is fault ie. a faulty steering angle sensor- can you just fit the new part and programme or does something need to be done to the old cim before removal? Thanks
Hi mate, can you fix CIM unit on an Astra H VXR?? Me & a mate have the stop/start issues where it won't recognise the key now and then. Been told to replace CIM. Can you help with this and how much would you charge? Thanks (X2 cars)
Great video, I’m trying to find out why some of my lights and windscreen washers stopped working on a car I just bought for my wife. 2005 signum , do you think buying one of these will help me out
Hey Alan, I've just fitted my new CIM on my C vectra 06 and im about to do the programming - what do i need to copy from my high can low can etc? and what problems will occur if I cant do that, EG I already have the new one in it before writing down the information :D other than that I think everything is clear from the video, BCM DDM (my car doesnt have PDM i think) etc and it should atleast start right? this whole shit show because of faulty steering angle sensor that turned ESP light on and failed my yearly inspection.. Thankful for any answers
Great tutorial! But unfortunately I simply cannot make my CIM work with my car. Bought a de-paired CIM (exact model) from eBay, followed your instructions to the letter but the immobiliser icon still shows up. The odd thing is that now I cannot access the CIM configuration from Vauxcom anymore. After selecting it from the menu, it goes to the "Checking Interface" popup for a while, the car makes a strange noise (coming from the engine bay I believe), the fuel tank needle thing (sorry the English) on the dashboard goes to 0 and that's it. Any idea what it can be? Thanks so much!
Hi Alan, do I need to replace ignition module assy too that came with the reset CIM and transfer barrel over or just the CIM unit only will be ok? Why do the other modules need resetting then programmed with same code they already had programmed?
hola colega tengo un problema con el climatizador con el vectra c en el lado de conductor sale frio y logo calor y asi sigue el mezclador de trampillas estan bien y no encontro el fallo me podrias ayudar
Buen día! Tengo una falla en mi vectra 2004 y lo que pasa es que el carro en movimiento se apaga todo el tablero y si lo apago no vuelve a prender, ya que al abrir el switch solo prende el testigo del check engine y los demás no. Para prenderlo tengo que conectar y desconectar el arnes del cim hasta que prenden los testigos y ahí ya se que encenderá mi auto. Esta dañada mi cim o es el tablero o es la ecu?
Primero, trataría de soldar por reflujo los pines en los relojes del tablero donde enchufaría el telar si no funciona, después de eso, podría ser la unidad cim
Thanks for the tutorial Alan. Unfortunately my immobiliser is not accepting the security code although the code works with my ecu. Should I try an ECU reset?
Good day... i cannot seem to do the ipc reset. Opcom gives a message saying incorrect security code or illegal response. Im not on FB. Desperately need assistance on my Astra H. Do you have a different platform we could communicate on?
this is on a vectra and on a vectra if it says incorrect security code in the ipc then some one changed the clocks without changing the code but dont know about astra
yes you have to strip down the clocks remove the EEPROM chip read the chip then decode the dump file then put EEPROM back in the clocks put back in the car then reset using the code from the dump and program in your car code in it place

I've sent a join request. Thank you for the quick reply
¿hola tengo un CIM de un vectra c .3.0 cdti esta descasada se puede reprogramar con el vauxcom a un vecta c 1.9 cdti?
Si si tiene el código de seguridad
yes if you have security code
I followed the precedure but i fell short of success because opcom would not programming the immobiliser function in the clocks.
Good day... i cannot seem to do the ipc reset. Opcom gives a message saying incorrect security code or illegal response. Im not on FB. Desperately need assistance on my Astra H.
Do you have a different platform we could communicate on?
this is on a vectra and on a vectra if it says incorrect security code in the ipc then some one changed the clocks without changing the code but dont know about astra
@@AlanAnsell thank you for a quick response. is there any way one could retrieve that code?
I have my original code only.
yes you have to strip down the clocks remove the EEPROM chip read the chip then decode the dump file then put EEPROM back in the clocks put back in the car then reset using the code from the dump and program in your car code in it place

Hola lo siento si la traducción no va como hablar Inglés ok
Retire la rueda de estrella y los plásticos para que pueda ver la unidad cim en la parte superior izquierda izquierda verá 2 letras
Usted tiene que encontrar un cim con la misma 2 letra
Y tiene que ser tech2 reset para que pueda programar en su coche o venir con su propio código de seguridad para que pueda restablecer y poner su información en ella
Hello sorry if translation not go as a speak English ok
Remove starring wheel and plastics so you can see the cim unit in the front top left you will see 2 letters
You have to find a cim with the same 2 letter
And it has to be tech2 reset so you can program it in to your car or come with its own security code so you can reset and put your information in to it
