Where is the dual-fuel ECU located in the Geely Vision?
2 Answers
The model number of the dual-fuel ECU for the Geely Vision's engine is located on the nameplate directly above the engine. Dual-fuel vehicles: These vehicles are equipped with two sets of fuel supply systems. One system supplies natural gas or liquefied petroleum gas, while the other supplies another type of fuel. The two fuel supply systems deliver fuel to the combustion chamber in a predetermined ratio, where the fuels mix and burn inside the cylinder. Examples include diesel-compressed natural gas dual-fuel vehicles and diesel-liquefied petroleum gas dual-fuel vehicles. Safety usage tips: When starting the vehicle, use gasoline to initiate the process. After starting, allow the engine to warm up to its normal operating temperature, which is theoretically between 80-90 degrees. This is particularly important during cold seasons. When using natural gas, ensure there is at least 1/4 of backup fuel remaining in the gasoline tank.
I've worked on many Geely vehicles. The location of the dual-fuel (CNG/petrol) ECU in the Vision model is typically on the right side of the engine compartment, adjacent to the firewall. When you open the hood, you'll find it housed in a black metal box mounted on a bracket. This position ensures good ventilation – crucial since the ECU manages fuel switching between gas and petrol. Never attempt DIY removal as it may loosen connectors or cause water ingress leading to short circuits. A common issue is connector detachment due to excessive vibration on rough roads, resulting in hard starting. I recommend having a technician inspect and clean dust buildup every six months. The ECU becomes more sensitive during seasonal transitions; if you experience slow cold starts in winter, it might indicate an ECU issue – get it serviced promptly to avoid further complications.
