Captured as much as I can, able to open up the steering column cover by sitting in the driver seat.

Here is dedicated unit you are looking for, but didn't able to locate any part number. Yes it is 2 pin connector which is missing from your system.

I'm only found part number at the Immobiliser Black colour Box, Which say 'Ritz VDI' specific but here I don't post it as it may reveal the secret code of the car. I'm sure it is different for Ritz VXI which you want to look for.

Thank you so much for your pic reference but you missed the above two wires going to switch i mentioned i need to know that specific switch only my friend.

The two green cable is connected to the two pin connector but where that 2 green wire goes to[confused]

Don't worry the code in the key will not be printed in any of the immobilizer circuit ok as only part no of petrol and diesel variant will be printed.

Yes, I try to locate the source of that green cable, but can't able to locate a single thing thing, neither it visible from the upper side nor from below side as my phone can't go there. The Green cable is just disappears there and it is very short and tightly holding there. By layman point view it just enter into the steering rod as it looks every possible angle.

As I conclude there is no way to know the source without un-install anything further. I believe only people able to help MASS mech with a VXI car.

Fuel efficiency ? Are you sure about this? As Ritz VXi don't show anything related to that.
yes sure we can get it as old version ritz are not getting the MID features as face lifted ritz gets the fuel consumption as factory fitted with some better upgrades.

Your car ritz 2010 doesn't have the MID i think as i have LXI model so there is no fuel efficiency in-built.but there is only trip in VXI 2010 model.

So the steering lock has in-built key remainder switch as per your comments.

let me check with Mass guys whether it can help me.

Hai Sidd7hartha, you have the face lifted Ritz i think you car has multi-information display in the Meter with trip and fuel consumption in the mode button.

Can you confirm that you car has it or not as only diesel engine has the MID fuel consumption.[:)]

I don't know, but it looks like so as it enter in the metal part. The metal part I'm referring as well contain several other complicated mechanism install over it and the 2 Green cable which become a single cable black (with insulating) disappear there.

He owned a 'Glistering Grey' Ritz VXI which means it is a pre face lifted model, because during my car purchase last year I seek that color madly and wanted to settle for that color, if it's OLD unclear stock available to the dealer . Contacted every reputed dealer here in my place but nobody got that - As maruti discontinued this color and make it exclusive for Swift / Dezire for this segment of car which they reply.

About MID;

There is no fuel consumption display, it not a proper MID comparing to Swift / Dezire / Ertiga

What Ritz got,

1. RANGE

2.AVG KM/L or 100KM/L

3.Instant Fuel Consumption - Which I believe useless, some time it shows 45-55km / L depends on Accelerator press, No car can give this kind of mileage.

What about the aftermarket Car Head Up Display System OBD Ⅱ any one in india fixed it and any experience about this as it cost 4k - 5k range which provides more info compare to OEM fitted with digital display & looks very elegant

I believe If extra info needed,

Better to get Bluetooth OBD2 Sensor costing 1k + 250/- for software (torque pro) with our existing Andriod Phone.

I know there is a trip meter but no idea about any gauge to measure fuel consumption. However I will check the manual and mode button.[:)]

There is two trip meter [:)] , anyhow manual will not help, everything is there 'if equipped' in your car, you need to press the MODE button actually to examine.

Look for AVG and RANGE display specially, which ensure that old Ritz can DTE function inbuilt in their ECU.
