ECU 0281015681 for the Fiat Ducato 2.3 Multijet
Virgin Plug & Play
Virgin Plug & Play – after fitting the ECU codes itself to the vehicle and immobiliser with no programming (condition: matching numbers and a working immobiliser).
On request we prepare an IMMO OFF version: the vehicle runs without problems, but a red immobiliser warning stays on the dashboard and a fault in diagnostics – it disappears only after immobiliser programming. That is why Virgin is better.
Cloning, options and warranty
Cloning on request is free: send your damaged ECU or its files and we will transfer the data to this unit. Paid extras: chip tuning, EGR OFF, DPF OFF. Warranty: 6 months.

With IMMO OFF the vehicle runs, but an immobiliser fault and a red warning on the dashboard remain – only immobiliser programming removes them. Virgin has no such fault.
