Kia ECU & Engine Control Modules – Rio, Ceed, Sportage and Sorento
Kia Engine Control Units: Choosing by Part Number
At Auto24Parts you will find used original engine control units for Kia cars, including the Rio, Ceed, Sportage, Picanto, Carens, Sorento and Carnival models, inspected and tested before sale. Control units for other makes and models can be found among all engine control units.
What matters when choosing is the complete part number from the label, for example 391102X046 or 391132A510, not just the model and year. If you are not sure, send us a photo of the label on the original control unit and we will help you check compatibility.
Engine control units may be offered in several preparation variants, for example locked, unlocked or full set. We describe them on the ECU preparation options page.
List of products
Kia Engine Control Units: ECU, ECM and Engine Computer
An engine control unit, also called an ECU, ECM or engine computer, is an electronic module that manages engine operation based on signals from sensors. When it fails, the car may not start, the engine warning light may come on and the diagnostic tester may be unable to connect to the control unit.
How to choose a control unit for a Kia by part number
Model, year and engine capacity are often not enough, because the same model can come with different versions of the control unit. Before buying, compare:
- the Kia part number, for example 39110-2X046, 39113-2A510 or 39110-02KB0,
- the control unit manufacturer's number, for example Bosch 0 261 206 424, Siemens 5WY1341B or Kefico,
- the full designation, including the trailing letters and digits,
- the engine code and the designations from the listing, for example A3E or SIMK42.
A similar housing and identical connectors do not confirm that two control units are compatible.

Our range changes regularly and not every listing states the year and the engine, so compatibility is determined by the number on the original control unit.
Engine control unit variants
Engine control units may be offered in several variants: locked (with data from the previous vehicle), unlocked (for example Virgin, with a PIN code or CAR PASS, IMMO OFF or Plug and Play) or as a full set. Whether a unit can be prepared depends on the full part number, the manufacturer and the immobiliser system. We describe the details on the ECU preparation options page.
Used original control unit: condition and inspection
We sell used original control units, not new parts. Every unit is inspected before sale, and you can compare the numbers in the listing with the label on your own control unit.

FAQ: Kia Engine Control Units
| Which Kia models do you have engine control units for? |
|---|
| Our range includes control units for the Rio, Ceed, Sportage, Picanto, Carens, Sorento, Carnival, Venga, Soul and Sephia models, among others, and many units with no model stated. Control units for other makes and models can be found among all engine control units. |
| Are the model and year of the car enough to choose the right unit? |
| No. A single model can come with different versions of the control unit. The most reliable reference is the number on the original control unit. |
| What is the difference between a locked and an unlocked control unit? |
| A locked unit contains data from the previous vehicle, while an unlocked one is prepared, in one of the variants, to work in a different car. Details are on the ECU preparation options page. |
| Can I send a photo so you can check compatibility? |
| Yes. Contact Auto24Parts and send a photo of the label on the original control unit, and we will help you check whether this part will fit. |
