Have you wired up the Check Engine Light? it was probably me that supplied the immo but I don't remember which ECU you have what is the part number?

That's a 4u2 ECU.
The Check Engine Light lets you pull fault codes, you can wire up a temporary one with a small bulb or LED (with resistor). On the Vit there was a six-way connector under the bonnet near the driver's side headlight, you need to place a jumper in that to get the CEL to flash the fault codes. You'll have to crank for at least 15secs to check for a cam sensor failure.

Yes there should be at least one wire there, from the distributor to the bulkhead.
