MTU SmartLine with Naviop display simulator
I have found this video where you can see how we tested and repaired Naviop displays in 2.024. We have repaired some of these units with different problems, usually with touch screen problems. Beginning of that year we also were in a project for supplying 4 SmartLine systems for 2 boats in Italy, which originally […]

Cris cooked a great spanish paella because in July we had to cancel a meal we had programmed for 12th aniversary of the company, also Luís 32th birthday and finally the weekend victory on Andrés K-1 professional debut […]
Photos before Restoretronic
Some photos from 20 years ago, when I was in charge of electronic department of MTU dealer company MTM. During my job on that company, I was working at around 400 different yachts and ferries, troubleshooting almost all kind of MTU marine applications at that time. I left the company in 2.008, after almost 9 […]
R082 — MCS-396 — RCS-4 MTU electronic systems
Do you recognize this type of MTU electronic system? It is very old system called R082 used in 396 engine series. One of my trainings in MTU-Friedrichshafen was in 2.002 during 3 weeks to work on the knowledge and tips of old MTU systems, covering different types and generations. In that time, I was manager […]
A new engineer to Restoretronic team. We work for all countries.
A few weeks ago, we have hired a new engineer in our team, Antonio. Nowadays is not easy to find people in the market with a good technical knowledge, experience and passion for electronics. You can see Luís, another of our engineers which is working with us over the last 4 years. He is at […]
MTU MDEC ECU4 Restoretronic tester
We have different ways to test the MDEC ECU when we have to repair it, simulating all the sensors as RPM, temperature, pressure, digital channels and signals or injection. You can see one photo with the box where we can control the external temperature as you can have in an engine room during operation. We […]
MTU system simulator for BlueLine ECS-183 for testing a repair
This is an example of our portable simulators, in this case we are looking at the simulation of a MTU 183 series engine system, using a BlueLine ECS-183. The main feature is that this engine carries an injection pump, which we simulate in our simulator, just like the position of the pump, in order to […]
Tester Vcc-CAN for monitoring MTU Display from Mikrap
Many times, when we have to check electronic units that have failed at some point, reported by a customer, when we receive them in the workshop for service, it turns out that they don’t fail, the issue doesn’t appear during the normal test on the workbench, which indicates that the failures occur randomly and sporadically, […]
MDEC ECU, Engine Control Unit from ECU1 (ECU Seed Sila C1) to ECU4 (ECU C2)
The ECU model known as MDEC appeared on the market for electronic fuel injection control systems for MTU industrial engines in 1996. This high-performance ECU was introduced to control MTU 2000 series engines, and later to control the 4000 and 8000 series, varying in power and mechanical operating mode. A little-known early version of […]
ECS-183/S with ECB3 governor — BlueLine ECS-5, MCS-5, RCS-5 for BR183/M with ECB9 governor
At 1989 was originally introduced the 183 MTU engine to cover the request of mid-size motor for yacht market. There are some different electronic systems managing this engine depending on time or applications, as old Horn LOP, MCS-183, GAC, ECS-183/S, ECS-183/R, BlueLine… but today I show you the common marine application ECS-183/S with its ECU […]
