It weighs 1.161 kg and is listed for 2 applications across the KAD and KAMD series. It consolidates two earlier numbers, 3803465 and 873966, the latter catalogued earlier as a dataset. The KAMD marking is what separates it from control unit 874081, which is the KAD unit at 1.129 kg — only 32 grams apart, so the marking and part number are the only reliable guide.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n 🚤 Compatibility\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n Typically suits:\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Volvo Penta KAD44P\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Volvo Penta KAMD44P-A\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   Engine Family:\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  KAD, KAMD\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n ⚙️ Key Features\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  For the KAMD application\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  1.161 kg\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  2 applications across KAD and KAMD engines\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Supersedes 3803465 and 873966\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  873966 was catalogued earlier as a dataset\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n Also supersedes Volvo part number 873910\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n 🔌 Function\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n Holds the engine's control programme and governs fuelling and protection functions from the sensor inputs.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Engine failing to start or cutting out with no fuel or air fault found\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Warning lamps lit with no corresponding sensor problem\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Engine dropping into a reduced-power condition unprompted\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Corrosion or water marks inside the unit's connector\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Faults appearing only when the unit is hot\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n 🛠️ Service Notes\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Check the KAMD or KAD marking against the engine before ordering — 874040 and 874081 are near-identical in weight and are not interchangeable\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Confirm supply, earth and connector condition before replacing the unit\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n 🔄 Supersession \u0026amp; Cross Reference\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\n OEM Supersession Chain\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  874040 → Supersedes 3803465\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\n OEM \/ Related Numbers\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  873966 earlier number superseded by this part\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  3803465 earlier number superseded by this part\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n 📦 Condition\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Genuine Volvo Penta part\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Brand new\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Supplied in original or equivalent packaging\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Volvo Penta","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53385715941668,"sku":"5584049","price":6446.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/8115\/7924\/files\/original_54062596-5522-42cc-94ce-3d1997c57574.jpg?v=1788102954","url":"https:\/\/www.sawleysautoandmarine.com.au\/products\/874040-control-unit-genuine-volvo-penta","provider":"Sawley's Auto and Marine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
