2005-2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee Electronic Control Module (ECM) 05094898AF – Programmed to Your VIN
Imagine your 2005-2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee suddenly refusing to start on a cold morning, or the engine stuttering during a trail drive, leaving you stranded. These frustrations often stem from a failing Electronic Control Module (ECM), which manages critical functions like fuel injection and ignition timing. As a result, you might see the check engine light glowing with diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) such as P0601 for internal control module memory errors or P0300 for random misfires. This disrupts daily drives and off-road adventures, potentially leading to costly towing or breakdowns. Our ECM arrives pre-programmed to your exact VIN and mileage, ensuring seamless integration. It matches these compatible part numbers: 05094895AB, 05094898AA, 05094898AB, 05094898AC, 05094898AD, 05094898AE, 05094898ZB, 56044742AC, 56044742AD, and 05094898AF. Why does this matter? A mismatched unit can trigger more codes, but this plug-and-play design restores reliability fast, saving you from dealership visits.
Before replacement, you deal with erratic performance that hampers acceleration and fuel efficiency, risking safety on highways. After installing this VIN-matched ECM, your Grand Cherokee runs smoothly again, clearing persistent DTCs and preventing future failures.

Conquer These Common Electronic Control Module Failures
For 2005-2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee owners with the 3.7L 4×4 setup, ECM issues often arise around 100,000 miles due to electrical surges or moisture ingress in the RH rear engine compartment. One common problem is no-start conditions caused by corrupted internal memory, triggering DTC P0601 and leaving you unable to crank the engine. Another frequent failure involves rough idling or stalling, linked to faulty sensor data processing, which shows as P0128 for thermostat errors. Overheating from poor ventilation can also fry circuits, leading to P0300 misfire codes that shake the ride. As a result, these failures not only strand you but also increase emissions and fuel waste. From my experience, high-mileage vehicles in humid climates face this more often, emphasizing the need for timely checks.
Replacing with this programmed ECM clears codes like P0601 swiftly, often saving $150-300 in diagnostic fees alone. Imagine resolving a persistent stall by simply swapping the unitโyour engine fires up reliably, and performance stabilizes. For best results, scan for DTCs before installation and ensure battery disconnection to reset systems. This approach fixes root causes, preventing recurrences and restoring towing capability safely.
Step-by-Step Installation Made Simple
- Submit your VIN and mileage details when ordering to receive a pre-flashed ECM.
- Disconnect the battery and locate the ECM in the RH rear engine compartment.
- Remove old connectors carefully, using tools like a socket set for secure access.
- Install the new ECM, reconnecting all plugs firmly to avoid loose connections.
- Reconnect the battery, start the engine, and scan for any remaining DTCs.
- Test drive to confirm smooth operation; reach out for support if issues persist.
This process takes about 30-45 minutes for most DIYers, with no special tools beyond basics. Located conveniently, it ensures quick access, and the plug-and-play nature means immediate functionality without further adjustments.
