How to choose ECU 0281018291 55265683
Important: after fitting a new ECU, the injector codes must be written with a diagnostic tester.
Why we recommend the Virgin version
- Virgin: codes itself to the vehicle and immobiliser, with no faults, with no immobiliser programming.
- IMMO OFF (on request): the engine runs normally, but an immobiliser fault and red warning light remain; only immobiliser programming removes them.
Condition for Virgin: matching numbers and a working immobiliser.
Warranty and services
Warranty: 1 year. If you prefer, we will transfer the data from your damaged ECU (or its files) – cloning is free. At extra cost we do chip tuning, EGR OFF and DPF OFF.
Typical symptoms
Most often: the engine does not start and there is no injector control, no communication in diagnostics, no power to the ECU with good fuses, or a failure after water ingress or a short circuit. Wiring, power supply or sensors can cause the same – run a diagnosis before buying.
ECU condition
