Key Features & Benefits

This thing is really the brain of your engine. It manages a ton of stuff – things like fuel injection, ignition timing, idle speed, and even emissions control. It’s constantly taking information from sensors all over the engine – how much air is coming in, engine temperature, throttle position, all sorts of things – and using that to make adjustments, ensuring everything runs smoothly and efficiently. It also talks to other systems, like the transmission, to coordinate everything. Basically, it's doing constant calculations to get the most out of your engine. Think of it as the central command for your engine. Everything engine – related runs through this unit. It doesn’t directly make the engine go, but it tells all the other parts how to make it go. It’s responsible for balancing power, fuel economy, and keeping those check engine lights from popping up. It’s a critical part of the whole drivetrain system.
