For many garages, electronic component failure in a car means expensive replacement. However ACTRONICS says straight replacement is not always the best solution and a repair might be the better and more economical option.


Mechanics often shy away from electronic repairs as most modern control units need coding, programming and calibrating. However, ACTRONICS has complete expertise in this area and have found the more modern the device, the more it makes sense to repair it instead of replacing it for a new one.

Taking the example of a Continental MK 60 ES’ ABS unit for VAG for example, the ACTRONICS technical instructions for removing and fitting the unit shows it is a relatively simple process, involving normal procedures such as battery disconnection and brake system bleeding. The most important instructions are written under the section ‘CODING’ and state: “Coding is only necessary for replacement units. Repaired units do not need coding or programming, they are plug-and-play”. This makes the whole procedure is more straightforward. 

Other benefit of repairing an ABS/ESP is that ACTRONICS are aware of why certain units fail and can often upgrade them and eliminate weaknesses, so that there is less possibility of this happening again. A new replacement may well develop the same issues, which means both garage and motorist will be dissatisfied. 

The remanufacturing services of ACTRONICS are also on a par with OEM manufacturing processes. For example, recently, new robotised remanufacturing lines have been put in operation for TCUs, instrument clusters and ABS units. This guarantees a constant high-quality. The ACTRONICS remanufacturing service also offers a green solution that is reliable and cost friendly, so will appeal to many customers.
