Feedback from garages and vehicle owners
Supported ECU data transfer, with compatibility checked first.
Delphi ETC3 engine ECU for DAF CF and XF Euro 6 trucks (PACCAR MX-11 / MX-13). We repair your own unit, clone the data to a replacement, or come to the truck and fit a temporary ECU so it can keep working while yours is repaired.
Common faults
- Truck will not start – no communication with the engine ECU
- Engine cuts out, goes into limp mode or loses power
- Intermittent faults that come and go with vibration or temperature
- Water ingress or corrosion inside the case
- Replacement ECU fitted but the truck still will not start
Fault codes often seen
| Code | Meaning |
|---|---|
| U0100 | Lost communication with engine ECU |
| P0601 / P0606 | ECU internal memory / processor fault |
| P0560 / P0562 | System voltage / supply low |
A fault code alone does not prove the ECU has failed: supply, earths, wiring and connectors can cause the same codes. Send the codes on WhatsApp before ordering.

Questions
Repair, cloning or replacement – which do I need?
If your unit has a repairable fault, repair keeps your original and needs no programming. If it is damaged but readable, cloning to a matching used unit is usually cheapest. If it cannot be read or repaired, we quote a replacement with your data transferred where possible.
Will the car need coding after the work?
Not after a repair or a successful clone – the immobiliser and coding come from your original data. Some units need adaptations reset after fitting.
Does a fault code prove the unit is faulty?
No. Supply, earths, wiring, sensors and actuators can set the same codes. That is why every unit is tested first and you get a written report.
What if my unit is not faulty?
You pay only the bench test and receive the report to show your garage.
Do you remove immobilisers or emissions equipment?
No.
Not sure of the part number?
Send a photo of the label on WhatsApp or by email before ordering and we confirm the right service.
