Product Details
▾
The 176-7503 ECM / 10R-4096 / 10R-4087 Engine controller is a direct replacement engine control module, fits for Caterpillar 3508, 3512 and 3516 (including B-series) engines in generator sets, marine, locomotive, industrial and mining applications.
Each remanufactured module is disassembled, inspected and restored to the published 176-7503 part-number specification. Before dispatch every unit is powered up on the bench and function-tested for power-up, data link communication and input/output response, then programmed to your engine free of charge so it arrives ready to install and restore factory-specified performance.
- Reference Numbers: 176-7503 (1767503), 10R-4096 (10R4096), 10R-4087 (10R4087)
- Condition: Remanufactured
- Function: Controls fuel injection and engine operation to the engine’s factory-specified parameters
- Engine Families: 3508 / 3508B, 3512 / 3512B, 3516 / 3516B large-bore diesel engines
- Applications: Gen sets, power modules, marine propulsion and auxiliary, locomotive, frac pumpers and mining equipment (see Fitment chart)
- Programming: Programmed free of charge before dispatch — see notice below
Free Programming Before Dispatch — Information Needed After Purchase: This ECM must be programmed to match your specific engine before it will operate correctly. We program it free of charge before dispatch, so it arrives ready to install. After placing your order, please send us:
- Machine / equipment serial number or VIN
- Engine Serial Number (ESN)
- Optional: photos of your current ECM label and engine data plate to help us confirm fitment
Installation Notes: Installation and removal of the engine control module should be carried out by an experienced technician. Shut the engine down, apply lockout/tagout on generator sets and marine installations, and disconnect the batteries before unplugging the ECM. Keep connectors clean and dry, and verify engine operation with a service tool once installed.
