EDC17C60 Repair – P1631 and P1632 Citroen fault code resolved

The EDC17C60 engine ECU is commonly fitted to 1.6L Citroen Berlingo's from 2014-2020, and it is notorious for developing faults which cause the fault codes P1631 and P1632 to be stored. When this happens, your diagnostic equipment will log the message ‘ECU internal fault,’ pointing to a problem within the ECU that needs to be repaired. The EDC17C60 is also fitted to various other diesel vehicles manufactured by Citroen, Vauxhall, and Peugeot, all of which are susceptible to the same internal ECU failure.

With this ECU failure, you can expect your car to develop a myriad of faults. You may experience a complete non start, loss of communication with the engine ECU, and illumination of the engine management light when this occurs. Unsurprisingly, your car may also start cutting out and intermittently go into limp mode.

What causes your Citroen Berlingo to store the P1631 and P1632 fault codes?

In most cases, the ECU fault that triggers the P1631 and P1632 fault codes in your Citroen Berlingo comes down to internal component failure within the ECU. These failing components within your ECU can cause ongoing issues, which unless repaired, will continue to manifest as the troubling fault symptoms mentioned earlier. The quickest way to get your car back up and running is to fix the root cause of the failure by getting your EDC17C60 repaired.

When your ECU fails, your first point of call may be to buy a replacement unit directly from the manufacturer. This would cost you more money and longer wait times. Unfortunately, a new unit would come with the original design flaw that caused your old one to fail. This means the P1631 and P1632 fault codes will likely resurface in your Citroen Berlingo.

At ECU Testing we believe internal component failures shouldn’t spell the end of your ECU. So, we offer a better alternative – a complete rebuild of your unit. What we do goes beyond a repair of your EDC17C60 ECU, we test and rebuild your ECU using higher-quality components engineered to exclude original design flaws. With this option, you can rest assured knowing that your upgraded unit would outlast any replacement unit. 

Unlike a brand-new unit, our EDC17C60 rebuilds are more affordable and don’t require extra coding. As a plus, you also get to enjoy unlimited mile warranty for life.
