Default Need SKC code for emergency drive function

Hey guys.

My son's 2001 GTI 1.8t ECU fried when his secondary O2 sensor wire was ripped in half and ground out. Bought a new ECU on ebay out of MK4 Jetta 1.8t and installed it, but the immobilizer won't let the car run.

Can I just disable the immobilizer or do I have to limp it to the dealer and buy new keys?

Thanks,

AnteFate

You should be able to limp it to the dealer but you need the SKC number.
