    If I remember correctly the last 7 from my VIN is/was

    0606816

    hmm, I am humbled every day.

    first off i want to thank everyone who took time out to read this thread and comment a solution! all of you gave me such great advice and input!!! now to the good stuff. . . .what made it start?? the ECU! troubleshooted everything on the list before purchasing an ECU (which by the way i paid 150 for off ebay, was that too much?) which i then plugged in and started like it was a 2015 model! i actually clapped in relief when it idled steadily at 8-900 rpm. . . took it for the first drive since i bought it and it needs brakes! doesnt stop at all haha, suspension is totally shot as well. again thank you guys so much for all the help! here are some pics of my project !!! maybe you guys can tell me a little about it? steering wheel swapped? headrests a diff color in rear? anything rare??

    Hello mate any chance you could send me a picture of the relay you are talking about and rough location also what do you mean by y shape wire just bridging the pins together ?
