Your specialist partner for ECU & module faults
Cloning, component-level repair and data recovery for the electronics you'd otherwise have to send to a main dealer. Post the unit to us from anywhere in the UK — we assess it, sort it, test it and send it back ready to fit.
We don't remove modules from cars ourselves and this isn't a mobile or call-out service. You, or your garage, take the faulty unit out and post it to us — we assess, clone, repair or recover it, then post it back ready to refit.
What we repair
Not sure whether we cover your unit? Send us the part number and we'll tell you straight, before you post anything.
What we do with it
Cloning is quicker and cheaper, so it's the first route we look at on almost every unit. Component-level repair is what we turn to when cloning isn't an option — not the default we push you towards.
For a clone we need two modules: the faulty one (the patient) and a matching donor unit that you source and send in with it. We copy the data from the patient onto your donor.
Please mark clearly which is which before you post them — a label or a strip of tape on each unit saying "PATIENT" and "DONOR" is enough. Two identical-looking modules in one box with nothing to tell them apart means we have to stop and ask you, which holds the job up.
The donor must match the original exactly on part number, and where possible on build date — manufacturers revise these units in production, and a unit that looks identical from a different revision may not be compatible.
And please don't post the faulty unit on its own expecting a clone — there'll be nothing to clone it onto.
ECU & Module Cloning First choice
Data transferred from the faulty unit onto a donor, so the replacement drops in and runs. Immobiliser and security data carried over — existing keys keep working. Quicker and cheaper than a repair, which is why we look here first.
You source and send the donor unit along with the faulty one — please label which is which.
Module Repair When cloning won't work
Faults traced to the component on the board and replaced. It costs more and takes longer than cloning, so it's the route for units where no donor is available or the data can't be transferred.
Data Recovery
Software and stored data rescued from units corrupted by failed updates, power faults or hardware damage — often what makes a clone possible in the first place.
Aftertreatment & Emissions
Aftertreatment control modules (ACM) and the units behind DPF, EGR, SCR and AdBlue systems — common on trucks and commercials as well as cars and vans.
What it costs
The usual route: your data transferred onto a donor unit, ready to fit.
Component-level repair, where cloning isn't possible for the unit.
Quoted on the unit and the fault once we've seen it.
Final price depends on the unit and the fault. You get the figure and the plan before any work starts — and if cloning will do the job, that's what we'll quote you for.
How it works
Send the details
Part number, vehicle and the symptoms or fault codes you're seeing. We'll tell you whether it's something we can sort.
You remove it, then post it
We don't remove modules from vehicles or visit on-site — take the faulty unit out yourself (or have your garage do it) and post it to us, plus the donor unit you've sourced if it's a clone, each one clearly marked "patient" or "donor".
We quote, then work
We assess it on the bench and tell you the cheapest route that will actually work — usually a clone. Price confirmed with you before anything starts.
Tested and returned
Every unit is tested before it leaves us, and comes back to you ready to fit.
Why send it here
The quickest fix, not the dearest
If a clone will solve it, that's what we'll quote — even though a repair is worth more to us. You get the sensible route, not the profitable one.
Fits and runs
Cloning carries the immobiliser and security data across, so the unit drops in and works. No main-dealer coding, no key matching, no comeback.
Lifetime warranty
In the unlikely event there's an issue with work we've carried out, we'll put it right — for as long as you own the vehicle.
An honest assessment
If a unit genuinely can't be saved, we tell you and talk through the alternatives. You won't get a bill for a job that was never going to work.
Send us a module
Give us the part number and what it's doing. We'll tell you whether we can clone it, repair it or recover it — and what it'll cost — before you post anything. Garages and private customers both welcome.
