mattyfesta:
Im hoping some of you can help me.
I have a 55 reg gti, sent it into the body shop for the bumper, and passanger side wing and sill painting, they finished the work but now cant drive it home.
They drove it into the booth but had to push it out. The problem is something electrical im certain but my ecu is locked? The previous owner had it mapped by who knows and they have locked the ecu i think so nobody can copy the software.

Any ideas or advice would be greatly appreciated.

MAT ED30:
does it have any power to the dash? have they charged the battery? as it could be that

mattyfesta:
Yes all is normal on the dash, battery has charge, plenty of petrol and oil.
Was serviced by VW two weeks earlier and everything was fine. 
The car turns over but nothing happens  :sad1:
