Carmo electronics Anmeldelser 

I sent a CDI for repair, they stated they could indeed repair it, I paid for it and they shipped it back. The unit still has shorts across pins, and they won't reply to any emails about warranty or replacement.

Unit has been sent back for warranty repair 7/28, will provide updates here and modify review pending the outcome.

9/22, first tested the unit with an ohm meter per factory specs, seeing 100-300k of resistance where there should be none. Stuck it in the atv on the off chance that it would function. Immediately blows the 20amp within a second of switching the key on. I requested the difference between the "repaired" and "we cannot repair it" cost.

De ecu van m'n Super10 laten flashen,Het is meteen een ander motor! Zeer tevreden.

Hij heeft nog een paar tweaks nodig maar dit zal ongetwijfeld goed komen.

Shipping my defective ignition box was easy to their UK address and the repair shop responded within 3 days. But - they couldn't fix it. Their communications were quick and useful. Purchased a voltage regulator and the defective ignition unit and the voltage regulator were in my hands 5 days later. Would have given them 5 stars if they'd repaired the unit.

CARMO ELECTRONICS.

They could do what they claim on their website.

This is what they claim:

"Within 3 days
Fixed prices (go to prices)
Cause of defect
1 Year warranty!

Carmo electronics is able to repair a defective ignition and injection system very accurate and reliable. You only have to send your ignition/injection system to our company. Carmo electronics has developed a very unique simulation protocol to generate every possible kind of signal your motorcycle may generate. Repair is executed with high-grade parts and guarantees maximum reliability. Repaired units are finished with a very strong and durable coating that protects electronic parts for the influence of extreme weather circumstances.

The main benefit of repairing a unit in contrast with buying a more expensive new one, is the indication of the possible cause of defect. Even if the malfunction is not in the ignition/injection unit, but elsewhere in the electronic system. This information is supplied totally free of charge together with the repaired ignition unit."

The reality:

I sent my CDI via their UK address. It took nearly three weeks to get there. They blamed brexit, but other items sent to other addresses in Holland arrived within four days.

Their "ticket" system is user hostile. It's impossible to get in. The password reset link email it claims to send never arrives, so it's phone call time.

Finally, having paid for the test and repair service, they tell me it's defective (I ALREADY KNEW THAT, THAT'S WHY I SENT IT TO YOU) and they can't repair it.

They kindly offered to sell me one of their improved boxes for an obscene amount of money, though.

I received the email telling me that they couldn't fix it the day they shut down for a two week holiday. What am I supposed to do now? They've got my money, got my CDI and, it would seem, they've got me by the bo££ocks.

From my experience this company does not do what the website claims.

EDIT:

Rating increased to two stars pending further review.

Update:

Communication received from Carmo regarding the unit being irreparable did not include why it was irreparable. Subsequent emails from Kevin explained it, and included the offer of a replacement. The purchase price for the replacement unit has had the original amount I paid discounted from it. This pricing structure was not made clear within the original emails received. I have accepted the offer of a replacement unit under those circumstances.

That is a much more satisfactory resolution.

I will further amend this review when the replacement product is received and I can see if it works.

Meget dårlig service. de lover 3 års garanti på deres stator. men de kommer med meget dårlige undskyldninger når de så skal holde den. de holder ikke deres løfter. brug Rick stator i stedet for

Very poor service. they promise 3 year warranty on their stator. but they come up with very bad excuses when they then have to keep it. they do not keep their promises. use Rick stator instead

they are wildly greedy that they do everything to make money. and do not comply with their own warranty

We had a problem with the suitability of the product I ordered (a voltage regulator for my classic motorcycle). Carmo´s staff were extremely helpful and provided me with guidance and real assistance in the process to find the most suitable one and return the other (which resulted not suitable for my bike).

They were helping me very actively not only by email but also instantly by their WhatsApp line.

The quality of the products is very good for the price. Designed in the NL (EU engineering) and manufactured in Taiwan. I really like this approach because I had bad experiences in the past with Chinese suppliers while Taiwanese are very trustworthy and take care when the products do not reach the advertised specs. My experience with Chinese part suppliers was terrible in the past. They normally do not even respond to complaints and they claim to not to be subjected to EU consumers regulation (this is false if they deliver to the EU they must comply with our rules).

My experience tells me that if you want a trustworthy piece of electronic but you do not need the official distributor´s one (my bike is quite old so this did not make sense in my case) Carmo is a very suitable mid-price but good quality solution when compared to Chinese cheap parts that will break down in a month, and probably break your bike if not your bones...

Top service en hele heldere communicatie.
Ik had vuil/stof in de klok van de toerenteller zitten van mijn Triumph Speed Triple. Een ware nachtmerrie voor zo’n perfectionist als mij. 🤪
Jimmy heeft alles schoongemaakt en het dashboard ziet er weer uit als nieuw. 🙌🏻

Heel tevreden over het reprogrammeren van de ecu van mijn Moto Guzzi V85tt. Hij heeft veel meer koppel bij lage toerentallen. Bij inhalen is het nu gewoon gasgeven en hij gaat. Minder schakelen dus. Verder is hij bij constante snelheid zuiniger geworden. Topwerk van Carmo.

15 jaar geleden een programmeerbare cdi unit (daarbij 2x losse bobine ) laten maken door Carmo voor mijn Gagiva evo met een Yamaha ypvs 350cc motor. Speciaal voor cirquit gebruik.
Gezien er een kenteken op zit heb ik ook op de openbare weg gereden, er daar ging het fout. Al die verkeersdrempels en slecht wegdek met gaten/kuilen. Door al die klappen en extra trillingen heeft die cdi het opgegeven. Maar dat was geen probleem voor Carmo om dat voor mij in zeer een snelle tijd op te lossen.
Motor start zo makkelijk en loopt echt als een zonnetje. Cdi nu in betere rubbers gemonteerd, en heb weer met plezier me rondjes gereden.
Carmo " bedankt, uitstekend werk geleverd.
Groet, Kockyn.

Waar andere bedrijven aan hun top zitten qua kennis over ecu’s begint Carmo electronics.
Alle wensen wat afstellingen betreft kunnen vervuld worden maakt niet uit welk merk ecu, Carmo doet het.
Kevin , super bedankt Top!!!!!!

ecu flash bij Carmo
via Adrie Spierings motorservice terecht gekomen.
ben er correct en vriendelijk geholpen er werk gelijk naar mijn ecu gekeken en aangepast naar specificatie van mijn motor
Motor rijdt en gedraagd zich voortreffelijk echt een aanrader PERFECT
geen dipjes of inhouden als je om vermogen vraagt
Kevin bedankt motor rijdt beter als een nieuwe!

Helaas kon ik de acculader niet gebruiken (had een hogere amperage nodig). En kreeg (omdat de doos kapot was) nog maar de helft van mijn geld terug 75,-. Helaas, het product terug gestuurd gekregen en geen oplossing ontvangen van Carmo electronics.
Ik ga ik zeker nooit mee iets bestellen bij dit bedrijf.
