📝 Item Description

Genuine BMW/MINI B37 1.5T three-cylinder diesel engine management module manufactured by Bosch. Operating on the robust EDC17C50 hardware architecture, this DDE unit regulates high-pressure common rail fuel delivery, variable-geometry turbocharger (VGT) vane duty cycles, and EGR emissions feedback maps. The heavy-duty cast aluminum casing features original salvage lot markings ("BMW 216") handwritten in red. All primary multi-pin connector sockets are clean, straight, and fully free of moisture damage.

⚠️ Condition & Fitment Notes

• Condition Note: Premium European salvaged car part. The original factory specification sticker is fully legible with a crisp bar code. Internal processor architecture and CAN-bus communication have been fully bench-tested.

• Ideal For: Replacing a DDE engine computer damaged during front-end collisions, fried due to water entry from blocked engine bay cowl drains, or displaying unresolvable internal microprocessor error codes related to rail pressure regulator drivers.

• Important Note: This module features BMW's advanced anti-theft EWS system locked by an internal ISN (Individual Serial Number) key code. It is NOT plug-and-play. Replacing this unit requires a qualified automotive locksmith or technician using specialist tools (e.g., Autohex, VVDI, or hex editors) to read and clone or rewrite/synchronize the original vehicle's ISN security rolling keys before the engine will crank.

🛡 Warranty

• Warranty: 1-month replacement warranty covering ECU logic board component and micro-controller functions.
