Frequently Asked Question
- All Honda ECU's have an ECU part number which is located on the side of the ECU which allows for easy identification
The part number can be broken into three components:
* Honda's part number for ECU, which always starts 37820-
* Three characters (which are loosely related to the model of car/engine). e.g P72
* Three characters (which are the revision of the ECU) e.g. A01 or G52
The middle three characters are the most useful to identify what type of ECU it is. Different generation ECUs may use the same characters. e.g. a P75 OBD I ECU is different from a P75 OBD II ECU.
The last 3 characters are broken down into 3 parts. "A" generally is used for USDM ECUs. "G" is European, and "J" is Japanese, etc. The second digit - "0" typically means manual transmission, - "5" typically means automatic transmission, and the last digit is the version number.
