From the Technician’s Bench: “We had a customer with a 2000 Town & Country that had been to three different shops. It would randomly stall at traffic lights, making it unsafe for her to drive her kids. After checking all the basicsโfuel pump, sensors, wiringโwe traced it to an intermittent internal failure in the old ECM. We installed one of these pre-programmed units, and the problem was solved instantly. It’s not just about fixing a part; it’s about restoring a family’s confidence in their vehicle’s safety and reliability.”
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this part truly “Plug & Play”?
Yes. We use the VIN you provide during checkout to program the module with your vehicle’s exact software and security information. This allows it to integrate seamlessly once installed, requiring no further action from a dealer or mechanic.
What information do you need from me to program it?
We require your vehicle’s 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and the current mileage. You can typically find the VIN on your driver’s side dashboard (visible through the windshield) or on your vehicle’s registration and insurance documents.
Will this fix my check engine light?
If the check engine light is on due to an internal fault within your original ECM (such as code P0601), this replacement unit is designed to correct that issue. After installation, you may need to clear any stored codes with a standard OBD2 scanner.
How do I know if my old computer is the problem?
Common signs include a no-start condition where the engine cranks but won’t fire, stalling for no reason, multiple unrelated error codes, or a diagnostic scanner being unable to communicate with the ECM. We always recommend a proper diagnosis by a qualified mechanic to confirm the ECM is the point of failure.
Where is this part located on my vehicle?
On the 2000 Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Caravan, the Electronic Control Module is typically located on the driver’s side inner fender, inside the engine bay.
