Engine wiring loom will be pluggable into car loom by battery as with most Vauxhalls.

it's quite dificult to make out what you need from your post - is English your first language ?

anyway, the engine wiring must be transferred completely, together with the code-reading whatsit around the ignition switch. From memory, the Frontera Haynes manual has a 2.2DTi wiring diagram, which you should copy and blow up. You'll thenbe able to replicate a loom for your car, and prioritise the feeds that you need.

At start-up, the engine ECU waits for a "handshake" signal to come from the key reader before it'll allow the engine to start. No code = no starty
