Shared Vanagon Dictionary

  • Engine Control Unit

    Computer that controls the engine's functions, such as fuel injection and ignition timing

  • Control unit

    A unit that controls the engine's fuel injection system

  • Hall control unit

    Electronic control unit that uses Hall effect sensors to regulate engine functions

  • Throttle valve switch

    A switch that signals the control unit when the throttle valve is closed

  • Digifant ECU

    The electronic control unit (ECU) is part of Volkswagen’s Digifant fuel-injection and engine-management system. Gerry’s 1986–1991 technical bulletin index distinguishes these applications from the earlier Digijet years. In a January 1999 list thread, an owner of a 1986 Westfalia reported that the engine quit after cooling-system bleeding and asked whether fuel starvation or a failed Digifant component was involved; the thread records a troubleshooting question, not a confirmed diagnosis. Check engine code and market before identifying an ECU.
