🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta engine control unit from the Ignition and Control Systems group, supplied as a kit, weighing 1.146 kg and listed for 4 applications on TAMD series engines. It supersedes part number 3830878, which was catalogued earlier as a dataset, so the replacement now comes as a complete unit rather than a program load on its own.

  • Volvo Penta TAMD74C-A
  • Volvo Penta TAMD74C-B
  • Volvo Penta TAMD74L-A
  • Volvo Penta TAMD74L-B

🔌 Function

Reads the engine's sensors and controls fuelling, timing and the protection shutdowns so the engine runs to its programmed rating.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

  • Engine will not start, or cuts out, with nothing wrong at the fuel side
  • Alarms or warning lamps with no matching sensor fault
  • Instruments dropping out or reading erratically
  • Engine held in reduced power with no obvious cause
  • Corrosion or water tracking in the unit's connectors

🛠️ Service Notes

  • Six units in this group are listed at 1.146 kg, including 3819883, 3819884, 3819885 and 3819887, so weight is no guide at all here
  • Control units are matched to the engine's build and rating, so order against the engine designation
  • Isolate the batteries before unplugging it, and check the harness and earths before condemning the unit
