The Bomag 05716978 Control Unit is a genuine OEM component designed for a broad range of Bomag single drum rollers, refuse/landfill compactors, and recycler/stabilizers, including the BW 177 DH-4, BW 213 DH-4, BW 226 PDH-4, BC 772 RB, BC 972 RB, BC 1172 RB, and MPH 122. Sourced directly from Bomag, this control unit meets the exact electrical and operational specifications of the original part it replaces. It installs as a direct replacement with no adaptation needed, restoring full machine functionality across every covered model.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Electrical Specification — manufactured by Bomag to the precise output ratings, signal protocols, and circuit tolerances required by the original machine design, ensuring correct system communication and response
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — matches the original connector configuration and mounting footprint, allowing the control unit to seat and wire up exactly as the factory-installed unit did
- Broad Cross-Family Coverage — fits Bomag BW-series single drum rollers including the BW 177 DH-4, BW 177 PDH-4, BW 179 DH-4, BW 179 PDH-4, BW 213 DH-4, BW 213 PDH-4, BW 214 DH-4, BW 214 PDH-4, BW 216 DH-4, BW 216 PDH-4, BW 219 DH-4, BW 219 PDH-4, BW 226 DH-4, and BW 226 PDH-4, plus BC 672 RB, BC 772 RB, BC 772 RS, BC 972 RB, and BC 1172 RB refuse/landfill compactors and the MPH 122 recycler/stabilizer
- Restores Full Machine Control — a failed or degraded control unit can cause erratic machine behavior, loss of compaction feedback, or complete operational shutdown; replacing it with a correct OEM unit brings all controlled systems back online
- Electrical Safety Compliance — as the nerve center of machine operation, an OEM-matched control unit ensures all safety interlocks and warning circuits function as engineered, protecting both the operator and the machine
The control unit serves as the electronic brain of the machine, receiving sensor inputs and issuing commands to engine management, compaction systems, and operator interface functions. When this component fails or begins to degrade, the machine may display fault codes, respond unpredictably to operator inputs, or refuse to operate altogether. Replacing a faulty control unit with a genuine Bomag part number 05716978 restores the precise signal processing and system coordination the machine was built to deliver.
