Car electronics

Car electronics

Modern cars are full of electronics, and we know how to handle them.

At Gruppo Motors we specialise in professional diagnostics, coding, programming and repairs of car electronics across all makes. We fix faults that ordinary workshops often cannot.

Diagnostics

We carry out complete vehicle diagnostics with professional diagnostic tools. We identify faults in control units, sensors and communication buses (CAN, LIN, FlexRay).

  • reading and clearing fault codes
  • live data and measured values
  • basic settings and adaptations
  • tracking down hidden and recurring faults

Among others, we have original and licensed diagnostic tools:

  • ODIS - Volkswagen, Škoda, Audi, Seat, Cupra
  • Xentry - Mercedes-Benz
  • ISTA - BMW
  • PSA - Peugeot, Citroën, DS, Opel (newer)
  • TECH2 - Opel (older)
  • CLIP - Renault, Dacia

  • VCP
  • VCDS
  • Bosch (KTS560)

Coding (including online)

Because we have original licensed diagnostic tools, we offer online coding of control units including secured access (SFD, SFD2).

This means we can make changes and activate functions, even on the latest cars.

  • unlocking protected control units
  • coding after parts replacement
  • activating comfort and safety functions
  • work in line with manufacturer regulations

We also offer coding of comfort functions:

  • assistant settings (e.g. high beam assist)
  • hill start assist
  • start/stop
  • changes to comfort module behaviour
  • changes to lighting behaviour

Module programming

We program and update control units, whether after a unit replacement, because of software faults or for updates.

  • flashing control units
  • cloning control units
  • software updates
  • pairing units with the vehicle
  • fixing problems after unprofessional work
  • activating and deactivating functions in control units

Control unit and instrument cluster repairs

We repair control units and instrument clusters that would otherwise have to be replaced with new ones. Often a much cheaper alternative to replacement.

  • ECU, BCM and comfort module repairs
  • fixing damage after a short circuit or moisture
  • cold solder joints, damaged components
  • testing after repair

Wiring repairs

Damaged wiring is a common cause of mysterious faults. We carry out precise repairs of electrical systems with an emphasis on reliability and long service life.

  • repairs of broken and corroded wires
  • tracking down short circuits and contact resistance
  • connector and harness repairs
  • access to manufacturer wiring diagrams

Retrofitting equipment

We fit and code both original and aftermarket equipment.

  • parking sensors and cameras
  • cruise control, driver assistants, ambient lighting
  • infotainment, CarPlay / Android Auto
  • complete wiring + coding
