Restore Your Family Vehicle’s Dependability
Is your dependable family minivan suddenly running rough, stalling, or refusing to start? A failing Engine Control Module (ECM) can bring your daily routine to a halt, causing stress and uncertainty. When your Caravan, Town & Country, or Pacifica’s brain is on the fritz, you need a solution that is both reliable and straightforward. This is the definitive, hassle-free fix to get your vehicle back on the road safely and restore your peace of mind.
Common Symptoms & Your Solution
A faulty engine computer can manifest in numerous frustrating ways. If you’re experiencing any of the following, a failing ECM is a likely culprit:
- Check Engine Light: Persistent illumination with codes like P0601, P0606, or U0100.
- Engine Performance Issues: Unexplained stalling, rough idling, hesitation during acceleration, or a noticeable drop in fuel economy.
- No-Start Condition: The engine cranks but refuses to start, even with a good battery and starter.
- Intermittent Problems: Issues that appear randomly and are difficult to diagnose, often worsening as the engine warms up.
- Communication Errors: Your mechanic’s diagnostic scanner cannot communicate with the engine computer.

An Expert’s Note on Programming
From over 20 years of hands-on diagnostics, I’ve seen countless vehicle issues stem from improperly programmed modules. A generic, non-programmed unit can cause more problems than it solves, from transmission shifting errors to security system lockouts. That’s why we insist on programming every single 05150253AC ECM to your specific VIN. It’s not just about starting the engine; it’s about ensuring all of your vehicle’s systems communicate perfectly, just as they did from the factory, for the safety of you and your family.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this module truly “Plug and Play”?
Yes. We pre-program the module using the VIN you provide during checkout. This ensures it matches your vehicle’s specific configuration, including the anti-theft system. Once you receive it, you simply disconnect the battery, swap the old module with the new one, reconnect the battery, and you’re ready to go. No further programming is needed.
How do I provide my vehicle’s VIN and mileage?
You can typically add your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN and current mileage in a notes section during the checkout process. If you forget, we will contact you via email to retrieve this essential information before we can program and ship your part.
Will this fix my specific problem?
This 05150253AC ECM is a direct solution for a failed engine computer. While it resolves the common symptoms listed above, we always recommend a thorough diagnosis by a qualified mechanic to confirm the ECM is the root cause of your issue before ordering. This ensures you are purchasing the correct part for your repair.
What tools are needed for installation?
Installation is straightforward and typically only requires basic hand tools, such as a socket set (commonly 8mm or 10mm sockets) and a ratchet. The most important step is to disconnect the negative battery terminal before you begin.
Does this fit models with other engines besides the 4.0L?
No, this specific part is for the 4.0L V6 engine found in the 2008-2010 Dodge Caravan, 2008-2010 Chrysler Town & Country, and 2008 Chrysler Pacifica. Please verify your engine size to ensure compatibility.
