Applications for ECU 0 261 208 965 / 96 625 195 80
Based on the module part numbers, this ECU is primarily confirmed for selected versions including:
- Peugeot 207 1.6 16V – selected petrol versions, including the VTS, mainly produced during the second half of the 2000s.
- The Bosch ME7.4.5 ECU was also used in other PSA Group vehicles; however, exact compatibility depends on the hardware number and software version.
Before purchasing, always compare the Bosch number 0261208965 and PSA number 9662519580 with the references shown on your original ECU. The appearance of the casing alone is not sufficient to confirm compatibility.
Common symptoms of a faulty engine ECU
A faulty engine control unit can cause a range of symptoms depending on the type of failure and the vehicle's electrical system.
- engine will not start,
- no diagnostic communication with the ECU,
- irregular engine operation or stalling,
- ignition or fuel injection control problems,
- fault codes appearing despite the related components being operational,
- immobiliser or engine-start authorisation problems.
Similar symptoms can also be caused by wiring faults, power supply or ground issues, sensors or other vehicle modules. For this reason, a proper vehicle diagnosis is recommended before replacing the ECU.
Programming, cloning and preparation of the ME7.4.5 ECU
A standard used engine ECU removed from another vehicle may require preparation before installation. Depending on the application, this can include cloning data from the original ECU, resetting the replacement unit for reprogramming, or synchronising it with the vehicle.
This ECU is supplied in an IMMO OFF configuration. This means that the immobiliser function has been disabled directly in the ECU, allowing the unit to be installed without the standard immobiliser pairing procedure.
If the exact configuration of the original ECU needs to be transferred, ECU cloning is also available. This requires either a valid data read from the original module or the original ECU to be sent to us for cloning.

Yes. Part number 0261208965 is confirmed for selected petrol versions of the Peugeot 207 1.6 16V. However, before purchasing, you should also compare the PSA part number shown on your original ECU.
|
Does the Bosch ME7.4.5 ECU 9662519580 require coding after installation?

The 9662519580 ECU offered here is supplied with IMMO OFF, so standard immobiliser pairing is not required. The remaining vehicle configuration must still be compatible with the ECU.
|
What does IMMO OFF mean on a Peugeot 207 ME7.4.5 ECU?
|
|
IMMO OFF means that the immobiliser function has been disabled directly in the ECU. This allows the engine control unit to operate without the standard procedure for synchronising the immobiliser with a used replacement ECU.
|
Can ECU 0 261 208 965 be cloned from my original ECU?
|
|
Yes. If the data from the original module can be successfully read, a replacement ECU can be prepared by transferring the required data. Cloning allows the configuration assigned to the specific vehicle to be retained.
|
How can I check whether 96 625 195 80 is suitable for my Peugeot?
|
|
The most reliable method is to compare the references on your original ECU. PSA number 96 625 195 80 should match the number on the original module. You should also verify Bosch number 0261208965 and the ME7.4.5 ECU family.
