Lehane Autos provides vehicle electronics and retrofit services in Swansea for private owners and the motor trade. Work can include supported control-unit repairs, data recovery, coding, programming and component installation.
We assess the vehicle, hardware, software and requested outcome before confirming compatibility, the procedure and a quotation. Some jobs require the complete vehicle for adaptation and testing.
Vehicle electronics work involves both physical components and the data stored within control units. We assess how the systems communicate and whether the required data can be read, recovered or adapted.
Work involving vehicle security information requires appropriate authorisation and proof of entitlement. Availability depends on the exact module, its condition and current programming support.
Data extraction is a vital service we offer at our workshop and remotely:
Depending on the module and service, work can be arranged:
We work with:
Using definition files, logic analysers, OBD tools, PIDs, and CAN data, we can:
This process is essential for advanced car electronics diagnostics in Swansea.
Some supported repairs require direct access to memory devices or microcontrollers rather than programming through the diagnostic connection. After assessment, this may provide options to:
This capability is especially valuable for specialist repairs, conversions, and legacy systems.
Our Morriston workshop assesses retrofit, coding and programming enquiries for supported vehicles. The examples below are subject to the fitted hardware, software, installation requirements and testing; they are not a universal compatibility list.
Retrofit Service Examples:
ECU programming starts FROM £144 including VAT (£120 excluding VAT). This is a minimum programming charge, not the total cost of replacing an ECU. Replacement hardware, diagnosis, removal/refitting and any additional coding or adaptation are quoted separately as required. The final quote depends on the vehicle, ECU, available data and the work needed. Contact us before purchasing a replacement unit so we can check compatibility and confirm the scope and price.
Sometimes. The options depend on the ECU, available data and condition of the original and replacement units. Missing or unreadable security information can prevent cloning or adaptation. We assess the available components before confirming a supported method.
It depends on the vehicle specification. Some vehicles have compatible hardware already fitted; others need replacement components or wiring. Send the vehicle details before buying parts. A chargeable diagnostic assessment may be needed to identify the fitted modules and confirm compatibility; the scope and charge are agreed first.
Engine-conversion enquiries require individual assessment of the ECU, vehicle and intended use. We only undertake authorised work with a supported procedure and explain any security, compatibility and testing implications before agreeing the job. We cannot promise that every ECU can be adapted or that an immobiliser change is appropriate.
Some supported modules can be prepared by post, but we must first confirm the exact components, available vehicle data and proof of entitlement. A working paired component may be required. Other jobs need the complete vehicle for adaptation and final testing. Contact us before removing or sending any parts.
Yes. We support garages, dealerships and fleet operators with suitable workshop, postal and remote services. Availability depends on the vehicle, module, equipment and requested work. Contact us to agree the scope before booking or sending components.
Contact Lehane Autos in Morriston, Swansea with your vehicle details, symptoms or proposed retrofit. We will explain the assessment required, supported options and quotation before work is agreed.
