LimeLing Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 Greetings, everyone. One side of the BCU has a white label that displays the component number and other relevant information. Additionally, there is a code 255/19. Does this imply that the year of production is 2019? Thank you in advance for your assistance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syncephe Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 Hello, it may be considered as such in comparison to others, but I cannot guarantee it with absolute certainty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dudeta Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 The production of Disco 2s ceased in 2004. It is uncertain if they will resume production in 2019. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racerse Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 Perhaps a new BCU was produced in 2019 as a potential replacement? I am aware that they use the week of the year to determine when an item was produced. The number 19 might perhaps represent the specific week in which it was manufactured. However, it is uncertain how one can deduce the year from the other information, assuming it is actually a date code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WordSnoop Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 However, it does! Can you provide me with the code that tracks the current location of the BCU as it travels across the world? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dudeta Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 Perhaps the 255th day of the year 2019? I am curious whether it was a Friday! Incorrect, it occurred on a Thursday. (It is astonishing what one can get from the internet!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LimeLing Posted May 10 Author Share Posted May 10 I am experiencing difficulties with the BCU (Body Control Unit), as the fob (keyless entry device) is unable to activate the immobilisation system of the D2 TD5. The first electronic key access (EKA) provided by the dealer is non-functional. Upon inspection of the BCU, I saw that the label indicates a reading of 145/11. Additionally, there is a delivery slip attached to the item, which contains the serial number and relevant information. The document is dated 2011. Based on the fact that my d2 is from 2001, I believe it had a BCU modification in the past and there is no available EKA information associated with it. I got a refurbished BCU to resolve the problem. The sticker on the new BCU indicates a code of 255/19. It is really intriguing whether it pertains to the date of production. For your information, the new bcu does not effectively address the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syncephe Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 Perhaps the issue lies elsewhere, since it is not always the BCU that is causing the problem. I am curious to see how you arrived at the conclusion that a faulty fob implies a faulty BCU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LimeLing Posted May 10 Author Share Posted May 10 Perhaps BCU is not the issue. We have not yet reached a definitive decision. Attempting to ascertain the causes. The EKA code is still undisclosed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syncephe Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 It would be more helpful if you provide a thorough description of the situation so that someone may be able to identify the issue. The BCU should only be considered as a possible cause if the fob is not functioning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
