Bobcat E50 power remap

A power remap on the Bobcat E50 recalibrates the fuel quantity, injection timing and torque limiter maps. On compact machines the engine runs the hydraulic pump close to its limit; with more torque in reserve, rpm drops less when digging and travelling together.

Bobcat E50 DPF, EGR and AdBlue fault solution

Mini excavators work in short cycles with frequent stops and long idling; in these conditions the particulate filter (DPF) cannot clean itself and blocks. With an EGR fault or emission sensor errors the machine enters limp mode. The cause is diagnosed first; the software solution is applied according to the ECU type.

ECU and compatibility for the Bobcat E50

Services with a verified solution for Bobcat in our library: Stage 1 Remap, DPF Delete, EGR Delete, AdBlue / SCR Delete and DTC / Fault Code Removal. The control units we work on in Bobcat machines include DELPHI DCM3.7, BOSCH EDC17C87, BOSCH ME17.9.74 and BOSCH EDC17CV54. The same model can carry a different ECU depending on build year and engine option, so we confirm compatibility for the Bobcat E50 from a photo of the ECU label or from the file read out.

Frequently asked questions

Which software services are available for the Bobcat E50?

Services with a verified solution for Bobcat in our library: Stage 1 Remap, DPF Delete, EGR Delete, AdBlue / SCR Delete and DTC / Fault Code Removal. We confirm on the file which of them apply to the ECU fitted to your Bobcat E50.

How much power does the Bobcat E50 gain with a remap?

The gain depends on the engine option, the ECU type and the machine's power level within its range. Rather than quote a fixed figure, we read the original file first and tell you what increase is possible.

How do I find out which ECU my Bobcat E50 has?

The exact type is read from the label on the ECU or with a diagnostic tool. A photo of the label and the model year of the machine are enough.

How long does the job take, and can it be done on site?

Most ECUs are read and written through the diagnostic socket and the job is completed the same day; some units are removed and worked on the bench. Contact us for on-site service.

Can the original software be restored?

Yes. The original software is archived and the Bobcat E50 can be returned to its factory setting on request.
