🔧 Product Description

Core deposit for a control unit kit, in the Ignition and Control Systems group. It is the refundable charge raised against the old control unit kit when the exchange unit is bought, and it comes back once the worn control unit kit is returned. The line itself is an accounting entry rather than a part, so nothing ships against it on its own. Under Volvo Penta's core numbering the exchange unit it belongs to takes part number 3802250, which is the number to quote for the component itself. It is one of 33 control unit kit cores in this run of numbers, 3805232 to 3805288, and nothing published against them separates one from another, so order the number that matches the unit actually coming off.

⚙️ Key Features

  • Core deposit line, not a control unit kit you can fit
  • Belongs with the exchange unit, part number 3802250
  • Refunded when the old control unit kit is returned
  • Not separable from the other control unit kit cores here, so order by part number
  • Ignition and Control Systems group

🔌 Function

As a line item it carries the refundable core charge on the exchange; the control unit at the heart of the kit reads the engine's sensors, drives the injection, timing and protection functions, and holds the engine to the map it was programmed with.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

  • This is a deposit line and has nothing to fail in itself; the signs below are what normally condemns the control unit kit being exchanged
  • Engine that will not start or cuts out at random with no fuel or air fault to be found
  • Warning lamps and stored fault codes that return as soon as the sensors and wiring have been renewed
  • No communication with the diagnostic tool, or a unit that drops off the bus once it warms through
  • Erratic running, surging or the engine dropping into limp mode for no traceable reason

🛠️ Service Notes

  • The charge is refunded when the worn control unit kit is returned, so keep the old unit and send it back rather than scrapping it
  • Ordering this number on its own supplies no part - it goes on the order beside the exchange unit, part number 3802250
  • Prove the sensors, earths and connector pins before condemning the unit, and be aware the exchange unit normally needs programming to the vessel before the engine will run

📦 Condition

  • Refundable core deposit - not a physical part
