How to Install an Additional Control Unit on a Dacia Sandero

Model: Dacia Sandero MK 3 - Years 2021-2026
Part: Control unit

In this video, we will see how to connect an additional control unit to the Dacia Sandero. You can purchase this control unit on pedalsprint.com simply by selecting the make and model of your vehicle. In its simplest mode, it costs £169.00 - we have not found information on shipping - and the installation on this vehicle is particularly easy: first, disconnect the negative terminal of the battery, then simply detach the accelerator pedal and connect one end of the control unit in its place, while the other end connects to the old connector. The control unit is positioned in a place that does not cause any inconvenience, and that's it. Then connect to the control unit with your smartphone, where you need to enter some information. Once synced, it will show you some mappings. It also has another useful function, which acts as a sort of anti-theft device. The entire system is based on how the throttle body opens, so the valve will open more quickly in sport and race modes; it does not change the horsepower of the vehicle, it just makes it more responsive, and importantly, it is reversible at any time: just remove two connectors.

Pull this lever towards you until you hear a "click" indicating the bonnet is released. Next, exit the cabin and stand in front of the bonnet to disengage the safety catch and complete the opening. To do this, slightly lift the bonnet, locate the yellow lever underneath, and pull it to the left to fully release and open the bonnet.
