VTI tranny swap
#11
Eureka! I found some wiring issues and got them straightened out. Car starts and drives but the reduced power light is on! However i don't have any security light issues. Is the procedure to reset this different because of the car starting now?

Which ECM do you have on the engine?

VTI swap
I switched ECM's yesterday and car went into "security" code. Used communications reset procedure and on 4th step engine started and the reduced power setting was reset to normal. Now I don't have cruise control. I am wondering if that was controlled with the AWD ECM? I am going to troubleshoot more on Monday. A friend has a code reader I can borrow, there is a "Service Engine" light on.
Thanks for all the "expert" advice I have recieved so far on this project! It has been a tremendous help just knowing I am headed in the right direction!

Regardless of what you do the service engine light will stay on. My cruise control worked as soon as the procedure was performed to get the new ECM to function. After running my Vue for a while now I have a check engine light on. The thing is that after checking it with a scanner numerous times without finding any codes or pending codes I feel it is a faulty signal being sent to the light. Every now and then when driving my speedometer needle drops to 0 and back up to speed for a second but does not effect the cruise control or anything else so that issue must be in the cluster, I'm assuming. My Vue is only front wheel drive so I am not familiar with the AWD model configuration. Is the ECM that you acquired from a 5 speed Vue which was AWD? Maybe that could make a difference.
Glad I have been able to assist you.

Blaisa -- where'd your signature go? Please reinstate
gattabout -- please configure yours to match those already on the forum. Click on your name at the top right of the screen, go to user cp and edit your signature. Thanks. Glad to see you two are working so closely together to solve the annoying minutia of these kinds of swaps.
First and foremost, it gets your vehicle on the road.
Second, it documents the path to get there and the small details someone needs to know.
That's what satunforum is all about.

I usually take my signature off in a thread after it has been used initially. Maybe I should shorten it if I need to post every time I post a reply because I do not want folks thinking I am bragging about my vehicles. Thus the reason for not repeatedly posting my signature in a thread.
I love to help out as that is the reason in which I first sought out this forum in the first place. Doing this swap has been pretty straight forward and easy once it was accomplished.
