Blue Richmod ECU

Cleaned up the garage and found some parts you want to sell? Or are you looking for that one part? You can advertise or request just about anything that has to do with the Volvo 480 in here: brochures, towing-hooks, antenna's, etc etc...

Hi,

I recently managed to get a near mint 92 480 turbo and have been reading about the richmod.

I would be interested, however being completely new to the 480 I have no idea where the ECU is located

on the car. I believe you have to have the exact same coloured ECU to swap...can you point me as to its whereabouts?

been a 92 i doubt it will be a blue ecu, will more likely be a purple or red. the ecu is located in the bottom of the centre console, pull back the carpet on the drivers side of the center console (uk models that is) and it's in a black polystyrene holder, look at the colour of the bosh label on it.

The best way to buy anything on this forum is when you see an item you want to buy , up for sale then pm the seller ASAP and put up the post "you have a pm " on the thread that way you can conduct business speedily and in private .

If you want a blue label ecu for a turbo then put up a wanted thread.

Sorry for forgetting to post a "you have a pm" here. Although I'm a new member I've been following this forum for some time now. Last time I was outbid by Spree on Ebay when a blue Richmod was auctioned so I had to act quick :wink: .
