Is Your Minivan Experiencing Frustrating Engine Problems?
If your 2008, 2009, or 2010 Chrysler Town & Country or Dodge Caravan is suddenly stalling, running rough, misfiring, or refusing to start, a failing Engine Control Module (ECM) is a very likely culprit. The ECM is the central computer of your vehicle, responsible for managing everything from fuel injection and ignition timing to transmission shifting and emissions control. When it begins to fail, it can cause a wide array of confusing and intermittent issues that can be difficult to diagnose, often leaving you stranded without warning.
From the Diagnostic Bay
I remember a 2009 Town & Country that came in on a tow truck. The owner was frustrated because it would die randomly at stoplights, but then restart fine. They had already replaced the battery and alternator. We hooked up the scanner and saw a flurry of communication error codes (U-codes) and a P0606 internal processor fault. After checking the main power and ground circuits to the module, we confirmed the ECM itself was failing internally. Swapping in a pre-programmed unit like this one had the van running perfectly in under 30 minutes. The customer was thrilled to avoid a costly diagnostic runaround and an expensive trip to the dealership.
Common Symptoms of a Failing ECM
- ✔ Check Engine Light is on with seemingly random or communication-related codes.
- ✔ Engine stalls, stumbles, or misfires intermittently.
- ✔ Vehicle experiences a no-start or hard-start condition.
- ✔ Noticeable decrease in fuel economy.
- ✔ Automatic transmission shifts erratically or harshly.
- ✔ Issues with other electronic systems, like the throttle body or cooling fans.
- ✔ The vehicle fails to pass an emissions test.
