ECU REPLACEMENT

BEFORE REPLACING AN AUTOMATIC GEARBOX CONTROL UNIT, IT IS ESSENTIAL TO CONTACT TECHLINE.

Once Techline has approved the control unit replacement, follow the procedure below:

  • In the "identification" menu, note the gearbox oil wear counter code.
  • Switch off the ignition.
  • Replace the control unit.
  • If necessary, change the control unit configuration in the "Configuration write" menu.
  • Write the VIN to the control unit using the diagnostic tool, command VP001 "VIN write".
  • Write the oil wear counter code from the old automatic gearbox control unit (noted in the "identification" menu) by running command VP015 "Oil wear counter transfer".
  • Write the automatic gearbox oil change date using the VP016 "Write gearbox oil change date" command.
  • Switch off the ignition.
  • Carry out a check with the diagnostic tool.
  • Write the after-sales service intervention date using the diagnostic tool and the VP008 "Write last after-sales service intervention date" command.
