Restore Peak Performance to Your 3.6L Pentastar Engine
Is your 2015 Dodge Challenger, Charger, or Chrysler 300 suffering from perplexing engine issues? A faulty Engine Control Module (ECM), the central computer of your vehicle, is often the hidden culprit behind problems like poor performance, stalling, or a dreaded no-start condition. This direct-fit 2015 Challenger Engine Computer arrives fully programmed to your vehicle’s specific VIN and mileage, offering a seamless, plug-and-play solution to get you back on the road with confidence.
The ECM is responsible for managing every critical engine function, from fuel injection and ignition timing to emissions control and transmission communication. When it begins to fail, it can create a cascade of symptoms that are often misdiagnosed, leading to costly and unnecessary repairs of other components. Our professionally prepared module eliminates the guesswork and the need for expensive dealership programming, making it the ideal solution for both DIY mechanics and professional repair shops.
From the Diagnostic Bay
We had a 2015 Charger 3.6L come into the shop with an intermittent no-start and a check engine light for a crankshaft position sensor circuit. The owner had already replaced the sensor twice with no luck. After connecting our scope, we saw the 5-volt reference signal from the ECM to the sensor was dropping out randomly. Instead of a bad sensor, it was a failing driver inside the original engine computer. Installing a pre-programmed ECM like this one solved the problem instantly. It’s a classic case where the root cause is the computer, not the components it controls.
Is Your 2015 Challenger Engine Computer Failing?
A failing ECM can manifest in various ways. If you’re experiencing any of the following symptoms, your engine computer may be the cause:
- ✔ Check Engine Light: Your check engine light is illuminated, often with communication-related fault codes (like U-codes) or internal processor failure codes (like P0600-P0606).
- ✔ No-Start or Hard Starting: The engine cranks but refuses to start, or takes an unusually long time to fire up, especially when warm.
- ✔ Engine Stalling: The vehicle stalls unexpectedly while driving or idling for no apparent reason.
- ✔ Poor Performance & Fuel Economy: You may notice a significant drop in power, hesitation during acceleration, and a noticeable decrease in miles per gallon.
- ✔ Erratic Shifting: Since the ECM communicates with the transmission controller, a faulty module can cause harsh or unpredictable gear changes.
- ✔ Misfires: The ECM controls spark and fuel, and internal failures can lead to persistent misfire conditions that aren’t resolved by replacing plugs or coils.

Frequently Asked Questions
What information is needed to program this ECM?
We require your vehicle’s 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and the current mileage. Please provide this information during the checkout process to ensure the module is programmed correctly for your specific car.
Is this module truly plug-and-play?
Yes. Because we program the module with your vehicle’s VIN, it will sync with the other modules in your car, including the security system, upon installation. No additional programming or dealer visit is necessary.
Where is the ECM located on my 2015 Challenger, Charger, or 300?
On these 3.6L models, the Engine Control Module is typically located in the engine bay, mounted to the inner fender or firewall. It is a silver metal box with several large electrical connectors. Always disconnect the vehicle’s battery before attempting to remove or install the ECM.
Will this fix my check engine light?
If the check engine light is caused by a faulty ECM, then yes, this part will resolve the issue. However, it’s crucial to properly diagnose the problem first. This module will not fix issues caused by other failed components like sensors or wiring problems.
Do I need to return my old part?
Please check the purchasing terms for information regarding a core deposit. In many cases, returning your old, non-functional module is required to receive a core deposit back.
