About ECU Transmission Control Unit

The Insignia Vauxhall ECU transmission control unit is an on-board computer which electronically controls the transmission of the vehicle. TCUs can be separate from, or in this case, attached to the ECU. The Insignia Vauxhall ECU Transmission Control unit contacts sensors that are placed around the vehicle to receive data in order to accurately calculate when to change gears and which gear to use as well as improve fuel economy and drive quality.

These sensors include the vehicle speed sensor, the wheel speed sensor, the throttle position sensor, the turbine speed sensor and the transmission fluid sensor. The TCU also uses data sent from the ECU. This controls and maintains the efficient running of the engine as well as scanning for any abnormalities in its function.

If a Insignia Vauxhall ECU transmission control unit begins to fail, you may notice a loss of power, error message or difficulty in changing gears. This problem can be intermittent at first, and can sometimes be rectified temporarily by turning off your car and turning it back on again after a short while. Ultimately though, any damage to a Insignia Vauxhall ECU transmission control unit will need to be repaired to correct the fault.

Vauxhall Insignia trivia

  • A descendant of the Cavalier and the Vectra, the Vauxhall Insignia is much bigger than both of these cars and is Vauxhall’s largest car.
  • The Vauxhall Insignia is recorded as being one of the most aerodynamic cars in the world. It has a drag coefficient of just .025, so it’s not just great for driving on the motorway but also makes for a much quieter and more peaceful ride.
  • Euro NCAP awarded every version of the Vauxhall Insignia a five-star safety rating.
  • Although first used in the Astra, an updated version of Vauxhall’s IntelliLux system appeared in the Vauxhall Insignia. The system includes 32 LEDs in each headlight (which is more than double what it used to be). Those lights can even turn off automatically to avoid high-beaming other drivers!
  • According to the website YouGov, the Vauxhall Insignia is the UK’s 85th most popular car, as well as being the 65th most famous. Fans of the car consistently describe it as comfortable, stylish, impressive, and fuel-efficient.
