Is Your 2015 Dodge, Chrysler, or Challenger Running Rough?
If your 2015 Dodge Charger, Challenger, or Chrysler 300 with the 3.6L V6 engine is experiencing perplexing issues like stalling, poor fuel economy, a persistent check engine light, or a complete no-start condition, the root cause is often a failing Engine Control Module (ECM). The ECM is the brain of your vehicle, managing everything from fuel injection and spark timing to transmission shifting and emissions control. When it begins to fail, it can create a cascade of problems that are difficult to diagnose and can sideline your vehicle indefinitely.
Don’t let a faulty computer keep you off the road. This direct-replacement engine computer, part number 05150883AC, is the definitive solution to restore your vehicle’s performance, reliability, and drivability. We take the guesswork and hassle out of the repair process. Unlike a generic unit from a parts store or a salvage yard, this module arrives at your door fully programmed to your vehicle’s specific Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and current mileage. This means it’s a true plug-and-play solution, requiring no expensive trips to the dealership for programming or flashing.
From the Diagnostic Bay
We had a 2015 Chrysler 300 3.6L come into the shop that was a real head-scratcher. The owner complained of random stalling at traffic lights and a transmission that seemed to shift erratically, sometimes holding gears too long. He had already replaced the throttle body and multiple sensors with no luck. We ran full diagnostics and all sensor data looked plausible, but we noticed intermittent communication drops with the main computer. After confirming all power and ground connections to the ECM were solid, we swapped in a known-good, programmed module. The change was immediate. The engine idled perfectly, the transmission shifted smoothly, and all communication errors vanished. It was a classic case of an internally failing 2015 Charger Engine Computer causing ghost-like issues that parts-swapping couldn’t solve.
Common Symptoms of a Failing 3.6L ECM
If you’re experiencing any of the following issues, it’s a strong indicator that your engine control module needs replacement:
- ✔ Check Engine Light: The light is on and may show communication error codes (U-codes) or specific sensor circuit failure codes.
- ✔ No-Start Condition: The engine cranks but refuses to start, often due to a lack of spark or fuel injector pulse.
- ✔ Poor Engine Performance: Noticeable loss of power, hesitation during acceleration, and rough idling.
- ✔ Reduced Fuel Economy: A sudden and unexplained drop in your vehicle’s MPG.
- ✔ Intermittent Stalling: The engine shuts off unexpectedly while driving or when coming to a stop.
- ✔ Erratic Transmission Shifting: The ECM plays a key role in controlling the transmission, and a fault can cause harsh or incorrect shifts.
- ✔ Communication Issues: Your OBDII scan tool may be unable to communicate with the vehicle’s computer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this engine computer truly plug-and-play?
Yes. As long as you provide your vehicle’s correct VIN and mileage at checkout, we will program the unit specifically for your car. This process ensures it will work immediately upon installation without any additional programming or dealer visits.
What information do you need from me?
We require your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and your vehicle’s current mileage. The VIN is essential for loading the correct software and security information, and the mileage is programmed for federal compliance.
How can I be sure my original ECM is the problem?
While the symptoms listed above are strong indicators, professional diagnosis is always recommended. A key sign is having multiple, unrelated error codes, or codes indicating a loss of communication with the module. If you have already checked wiring, grounds, and related sensors, the ECM is the next logical component to inspect.
Will this fix my check engine light?
If the check engine light is on due to an internal fault within the original ECM, then this replacement unit will resolve the issue. However, if the light is on because of another failing part (like an oxygen sensor or catalyst), you will still need to repair that underlying issue.
Do I need to send my original computer (core) back?
Please check the specific terms of this listing. Often, a core charge may apply, which is refunded upon the return of your old, repairable module. Returning the core helps keep costs down and is an environmentally friendly practice.
