So can I take out the original, but a new one and get it flashed by APR and install the flashed ECU. Then I can put back the original one if I need warranty work?

Brilliant engineering at its best. Why not put the ecu inside the engine I bet it will be easy to take it out.

great video thanks i just wondering if i want to replace a ecu isit plug and go or need decoding the system and key extra to do it set to my car

I'm not a 100% but I think that would be more body control module or ignition. ecu is usually strictly engine management. just like the tcu is strictly to control module :) can always check with your local vw tuning shop

I’m a little confused in regards to mine. I have an 08 rabbit MKV. Apparently mine isnt telling the fuel injector on cylinder 4 to operate. So do I need a whole new ECU? Or is it possible to fix my existing ECU with a reflash to stock?

Have checked the ECM is not located there, where would it be on a 2009 VW Routan.

Ohh...it's there. Just look more closely. I've had a mk5 & mk6, and that's where it "should" be. This dude's vid is on point, so go slowly and you will find it eventually.

If I replace only the pcm and reprogram the key, should it turn on? I should not change the vin of pa pcm or anything?
@ghostlyrich2 жыл бұрын
You need to write the vin and add the security key for the skim module
