Sadly I am parting with my Terrano :( I simply have run out of spare time to fix it, having just started a new job with the NHS as a Doner Carer for mobile blood donations. With all the homework and long days realistically I just wont ever get it done. Below is the wording from the ebay...

Somewhere I do have a spare pump which may be a VE. But yes I would be willing to spend £300-500 to get it back on the road. The problem being my lack of confidence to tackle the job.

And here the screw driver points to the gap where, on this board the chip has been desoldered so as to rewrite the code.

Attached, I hope is a photo of the back of the ECU board

Sorry for slow response, my mother has been in hospital so things have been difficult, plus being evicted from my business units hasn't helped.Thank you so much however for the hours of research you have put in on my behalf.

So despite now being pretty certain that the chip has been decided and replaced successfully the car still won't start. The sound being exactly the same spinning over with no fuel. I have again checked the read out and error code 1402 is still there. Hence my conclusion that getting the error...

This is the situation as it has been explained to me by those pro porting to be vehicle electrical engineers. I am currently waiting for Nissan to get back to me, as despite all my efforts rewriting chips it seems that without Consult the lock code stays in place. So yes, basically back where I...

Unfortunately not a single one of the mobile car locksmiths I spoke to still had the licence to use Nissan Consult to be able to reset and I spent days phoning round.

I have now spent a considerable amount of time on this but not quite got there with it, as yet. Had a bit of inaccurate info fed me early on which contributed to much of the failures but I am still working on rewriting the immobiliser chip from the ECU. Have invested in an EEPROM programmer and...

OK, first thing tomorrow it will be shown no mercy!

So, I have found a controller of some sort behind the metal floor plate but totally flummoxed when it comes to pulling the leads out. Strange two finger sort of thing one end, that looks like the cocking level on the back of an M16. I pull it out but it is only moving about 5mm if that and the...

Just possibly have found a life line although I will have to open up the ECU to check if the correct chip is present. So, where is the ECU? I thought it was under the drivers seat but all I can see is the CD changer under there.

Still unable to find anyone at all, let alone remotely local to me, who has the kit to reset ECU. Now trying to find someone closer than ECU Decode to have the immobiliser function removed.

Yes, it's the TDi so fly by wire. As in my first post, yes the transponder chip is in the key. It seems to be the fuel cut off that is the issue not glow plugs so forgive me but I'm a little sceptical as to that working.

You'll have to define fly by wire. If you could help/advise that would be brilliant. Having a problem finding an auto electrician who still has the means of accessing the ECU of such an old car. The last one I spoke to advised getting hold of ECU Decode Ltd to remove the lot.

Quick update so as to provide info for anyone else. Reconnected battery. Remote still worked for the doors. Turned over but not firing. Connected up the laptop and ECUTalk gave error code 1402. Just as an experiment I did the 6x on/off reset on the remotes. Still not firing and this had added...

Thanks again Rick. Time then to reconnect the battery and see what happens. I will try and connect up the laptop just to check the error codes. I'm presuming that being only a short distance the car should fire up fairly quickly? Or does it take a bit of turning over before the diesel gets to...
