When I removed mine nothing would work, it seems to be the brains of the car.Can I ask why you want it completely gone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be able to get the dealer to overide, or maybe by reprogramming the keys.. But you would need to trick the computer into thinking that the same ICC is plugged in. you would need to work out all the HVAC controls and stuff too I assume?

I have heard some small success with the icc out and bridging the Can Bus lines so that they continue to the next modules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
