MC1000 ENGINE CONTROL MODULE
(UNIT) - (ECM OR ECU)
The ECM is located on the battery box within the
subframe. .
The ECM (also known as ECU) is the brain of the
fuel injection system. This brain calculates fuel
delivery and ignition timing based on information
gathered from vehicle sensors and the calibration file
loaded at the factory.
ENGINE CALIBRATION FILE
Your vehicle was loaded with a calibration file
(Numeric Cal ID) when it left the factory. This file is
specific to your vehicle’s VIN number. You may be
able to benefit from subsequently released
calibration files when they are developed, however,
always consult with your dealer before attempting to
install any calibration file.
All authorized engine calibration files are
maintained on our website (www.cannondale.com/
motorsports).
DIAGNOSTICS
Engine Management System diagnostics can be
performed using the Cannondale Diagnostic Tool.
The tool is a combination of a specially developed
Windows- based software program and a data cable
used to connect your PC or pocket PC computer to
your vehicle.
With the tool, you can read fault codes, install
engine calibration files, set vehicle rpm, and monitor
engine operating parameters.
