A faulty transmission control module (TCM) most often causes limp mode with the gearbox stuck in one gear, harsh jolts when you select D or R, erratic gear changes, flashing PRND letters and a gearbox or engine warning light. However, the same symptoms are often caused by a low gearbox oil level, a weak battery, a poor earth or a faulty sensor. To test a transmission control module, start by checking the battery and reading the fault codes with a diagnostic tool that can talk to the gearbox control unit, then check the power supply, the connector, the oil and the live data. Below we explain the symptoms, the diagnostic steps and what the most common fault codes mean.

Important: Depending on the ECU type and vehicle model, not all of the options listed below may be available.
To select the correct option for your vehicle and ECU, please contact us before purchasing:
contact@auto24parts.com
1. Locked
This option is intended for professional workshops with the required specialist equipment and technical knowledge.
The ECU has been removed from a vehicle intended for recycling and still contains the immobilizer data and other information from the previous vehicle. Before it can be used in another car, it must be unlocked and then programmed using specialist automotive diagnostic equipment.
2. Unlocked
Several preparation methods may be available. The possible options depend on the ECU type, vehicle model and immobilizer system. Please contact us before purchasing, as some preparation methods are not available for every ECU.
Our electronics specialists can prepare the ECU in one of the following ways:
a) ECU with PIN code (Car Pass)
The PIN code is supplied, but programming with a suitable diagnostic tool is still required. After installing the ECU, it must be reset using the supplied PIN code and then programmed to the vehicle’s immobilizer system.
b) VIRGIN ECU
The data from the previous vehicle is removed and the ECU is restored to a clean, factory-like state. After installation, it must be programmed to the vehicle using a compatible specialist diagnostic tool. Unless another preparation method is specified in the product description, this is the standard unlocking option for most of our ECUs.
c) Plug & Play – IMMO OFF
The immobilizer function is disabled in the ECU. After installation, the engine can start without additional immobilizer programming. Please note that the vehicle will no longer have an active immobilizer function, and an immobilizer warning light or fault code may remain, depending on the vehicle model.
d) Plug & Play – Automatic Programming
After installation, the ECU automatically learns and saves the required vehicle data. No additional programming is normally required.
e) Plug & Play – 1:1 Clone
The data from your original ECU is copied to another fully functional ECU. The cloned unit is then ready for installation without additional programming.
You must send us your original ECU so that we can transfer its data to the replacement unit.
The original ECU must have working communication with the vehicle, a diagnostic tool or our programming equipment. If the required data cannot be read, a complete 1:1 clone may not be possible.
3. Complete Plug & Play Set
A complete matched set containing the ECU, immobilizer components and all other parts required to start the vehicle without additional programming. All components supplied in the set must be installed in the vehicle.
Important:
Dispatch time depends on the selected option. If an unlocked or specially prepared version is ordered, the preparation service usually requires an additional 1–2 business days.

Engine Control Unit Volkswagen, Audi 3.0 TDI Bosch 8E0907401AL 0281013080
The 3.0 TDI engine was fitted to Volkswagen and Audi models, and this ECU comes from a 2006 vehicle. It is a Bosch module with number 0281013080, part number 8E0907401AL and a second number, 8H0910401A. It manages injection and the running of the diesel engine based on data from the sensors. We sell it used, in working order and in good condition.
Numbers to compare
- 8E0907401AL – main VW/Audi part number
- 8H0910401A – second part number visible on this module
- 0281013080 – Bosch number, on the label 0 281 013 080
The AL suffix in number 8E0907401AL identifies the software and hardware version. The vehicle model is not enough to determine compatibility – what counts is that the numbers match.
Symptoms of a faulty 3.0 TDI ECU
- the engine will not start with a working starter motor,
- the diagnostic tester cannot establish a connection with the ECU,
- reduced power and limp mode,
- injection faults with no fault in the injectors themselves.
Start by checking the battery voltage, earths and the module connector.
Available options
We offer this module locked – with the data and immobiliser of the previous vehicle, for workshops that will unlock, program and match it themselves – or unlocked, prepared by us before dispatch, usually within 1–2 working days.
With 3.0 TDI ECUs, as with others, whether PIN / CAR PASS, Virgin, IMMO OFF, auto programming or cloning can be used depends on the number, software and immobiliser. Please ask before ordering. More: ECU preparation options.
