ECU, engine control unit repair by a professional from Austria<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

As an Austrian company, we offer professional, cost-effective engine control unit repair. We not only offer repairs for a faulty engine control unit, but also services such as ABS control unit repair<\/a>, Instrument cluster repair<\/a>, Tachometer repair<\/a> and Tachograph repairs<\/a> In this article, we would like to take a closer look at how the repair of defective engine control units works and what exactly an engine control unit is. You can find further information on which control units exist in our category Control unit<\/a>. You can find all our automotive repair offers in our Repair catalogue<\/a>. To ABS repair<\/a> is there a separate article and we have specifically for the ATE MK61 repair<\/a> also published an article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The engine control unit and its function<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The terms DME, ECU, injection control unit and PCM are nothing more than different names for engine control units. In the vehicle itself, the engine management computer controls engine function and monitoring. In order to carry out this function, it uses actuators and sensors. Actuators include the throttle valve, various valves and the ignition coils. The sensors include the accelerator pedal, fuel pressure sensor, engine temperature sensor and many others. In newer vehicles, the ECU also controls battery charging, air conditioning and cruise control, amongst other things. You can find further information at Engine control unit Wikipedia<\/a>. In the following article, we now come to our engine control unit repair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"ECU<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Internal structure of the injection control unit<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

For a professional ECU, engine control unit repair<\/strong> a distinction is made between two groups of control units. The ones are built with a standard epoxy resin circuit board, the others consist of ceramic circuit boards and are called hybrid control units. The repair of conventional control units takes place in the soldering department. During ECU repair, new semiconductors, capacitors and resistors are installed according to OEM specification. In the case of hybrid control units, replacing the components is unfortunately not possible, as these are glued to the ceramic circuit board and potted. The ceramic printed circuit board is connected to the connector via bond wires. If these connections are defective, a special machine (ultrasonic bonding) is required to restore them. We will show you how this works in the following video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diagnose the control unit beforehand<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To avoid unnecessary effort during ECU repair, appropriate checks and diagnostic queries should be carried out to ensure that the control unit is indeed faulty and not the supply line, earth connection, plug, fuse or another control unit. Unfortunately, we cannot perform a complete test of the control unit on the bench. Our tests are limited to the assemblies that match the fault. If injector 1 has been diagnosed as the fault, we test the complete electronic control of all injectors. Therefore, good preparatory work is essential for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diagnostic loan unit for easy fault finding<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

For workshops, we offer loaner engine control units. If you are not sure where the fault lies, you can contact us to see if we have a suitable loaner control unit available. With this fully functional control unit, you can test whether the fault lies with the control unit or the vehicle. These loaner control units also help us with engine control unit repair, as we can use them to take reference measurements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When is an ECU repair necessary<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

ECU repair is necessary when the electronics of an engine control unit have a defect. With a Engine control unit faulty<\/strong> there are diverse symptoms; among other things, the device can no longer be diagnosed or the existing problem cannot be resolved after checking all error-relevant external components. In addition, it can also happen that the software causes an error. Precisely because of this complexity, it is extremely important that we get all relevant information from you. This helps with the prompt and successful repair of the engine control unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

programmed used control unit<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Should an engine control unit repair not be possible, we can often offer a replacement unit and transfer the vehicle data to it. Should we not have a suitable unit in stock, or if you have one yourself, we will also program your used engine control unit. The unit can then be installed directly without needing to be coded. Please note: Neither the old control unit nor the software and coding will be tested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
