Default s60 not starting (ECM)

hi all
I have a 2002 s60 turbo , 3 weeks back I was driving the and suddenly the car started shaking and I noticed the RPM meter not moving , I stoped the car and tried to run it again but no use , I took it to a garage with and tried to check the car for codes , the ECM Returned Signal missing , any how he checked their is power in all the car but the injectors , each injector have 2 wires , 1 with direct power and the other one gets power while cranking ( from the ECM ) , I tried to bye a used ECM + KEY + Immobilizer , now when cheking for codes , we can see the ECM but still no power to the injectors , do I need to get the CEM also or this wont help ? any body knows what I can do ? I am waiting 2 or 3 days If no use I will sell the car as scrap , please help

Take it to a shop that knows what they are doing, as this one clearly does not. ECMs are not a common failure at all. The injectors do not get power from two wires. The immobilizer is not it's own separate unit. A used ECM won't work without programming and may not work at all. You can't just replace a key with a used one witout replacing the column lock.

this is the best garage in this part of the world , and what I wrote in my post is just what I understood from them , I heard about Xemodex in canda , they want the old ECM + the used one I got tand they will reprogram for me for a cost of 299$ + 280$ Freight Charges

Okay, so the ECM is not grounding the injectors. It could be the ECM but you'll need to send it to xemodex to try to repair. Just plugging another in won't work.
