Is Your 2011 Chrysler 200 or Dodge Avenger Running Poorly?
Dealing with erratic engine behavior in your 2011 Chrysler 200 or Dodge Avenger can be incredibly frustrating. Seemingly random stalling, a persistent check engine light, or a complete failure to start can disrupt your life and leave you searching for a reliable solution. The Engine Control Module (ECM), the central computer of your vehicle, is often the source of these perplexing issues. When it fails, it can mimic a wide range of other mechanical problems, leading to costly and incorrect repairs. This replacement engine computer is the definitive solution to restore your vehicle’s performance and reliability.

This ensures seamless communication between the ECM and all other vehicle systems right out of the box. Simply install the module, and you’re ready to get back on the road. It’s the most efficient and cost-effective way to replace a faulty 2011 Chrysler 200 ECM.
We had a 2011 Dodge Avenger come into the shop with a classic intermittent no-start condition. The owner had already replaced the battery and starter with no luck. The car would crank but wouldn’t fire, and then, an hour later, it would start up like nothing was wrong. There were no consistent trouble codes, making it a diagnostic nightmare. After checking fuel pressure and spark, which were also intermittent, we focused on the ECM. By monitoring the power output to the fuel pump and ignition coil drivers, we noticed the signals would drop out randomly. We installed one of our pre-programmed ECMs, and the Avenger fired up instantly and consistently. It was a textbook case of internal ECM failure that was causing a ghost in the machine.
Common Symptoms of a Failing 2011 Chrysler 200 ECM
- ✔ Check Engine Light: The check engine light is illuminated, often with communication-related or sensor circuit fault codes.
- ✔ Engine Stalling: Your vehicle may stall unexpectedly while driving or when coming to a stop.
- ✔ No-Start Condition: The engine cranks but refuses to start, despite having a good battery and starter.
- ✔ Poor Performance: Noticeable loss of power, hesitation during acceleration, and rough idling.
- ✔ Reduced Fuel Economy: The engine may run too rich or too lean, causing a significant drop in gas mileage.
- ✔ Erratic Shifting: The ECM works with the transmission controller, and a fault can cause harsh or incorrect gear changes in the 6-speed automatic transmission.

How can I be sure my old ECM is the problem?
While the symptoms listed are strong indicators of ECM failure, it’s always best to have a proper diagnosis performed by a qualified technician. Common issues like bad grounds, wiring problems, or faulty sensors can sometimes mimic ECM failure. This part is intended to fix a confirmed faulty module.
Where is the part number located on my original module?
The part number is typically printed on a white or silver sticker affixed to the case of the engine computer. It will be a combination of letters and numbers, such as 68057015AH.
