if i'm not mistaken the immobilizer is not built into the ECU. it is matched to the key and the ignition only.
please do more research as I'm not overly familiar with this subject.

plus keep in mind we are mostly US cars here, and your model may vary down under.

thanks for the resopnse

Lexus has no idea where it is

the computer man advises he needs it to fix the edu, and he has the key reader system, but cant acces the edu without the immobiliser

they are in photos and talked about across the web but i cant find any info on location and removal

the 97 model in aus is the first to have them

I've a photo attached

What is the extent of repairs they need to do to the ECU? Is this the caps or are they doing other work to the ECU unit?
