Engine control unit information


Delco ECU used in General Motors vehicles built in 1996

An engine control unit (ECU), also called an engine control module (ECM),[1] is a device which controls multiple systems of an internal combustion engine in a single unit. Systems commonly controlled by an ECU include the fuel injection and ignition systems.

The earliest ECUs (used by aircraft engines in the late 1930s) were mechanical-hydraulic units; however, most 21st-century ECUs function by digital electronics.
