Frequently Asked Questions
Is this engine computer truly plug and play?
Yes. During checkout, we’ll ask for your vehicle’s VIN. We then program the computer with your vehicle’s specific software and security information. When it arrives, you simply install it, connect the battery, and it’s ready to go. No further programming is needed.
Where is the ECM located on my 2006 Caravan or Town & Country?
The Electronic Control Module (ECM) on these minivans is typically located in the engine bay, on the driver’s side, mounted to the fender well behind the battery and in front of the power distribution center (fuse box).
Will this fix my check engine light?
If the check engine light is caused by an internal failure of the original ECM, this replacement unit will resolve the issue. However, it’s crucial to ensure there are no other underlying problems with sensors or wiring. We always recommend clearing all codes after installation.
What if my van has a security key (Sentry Key Immobilizer)?
Our programming process includes syncing the module to your vehicle’s existing security system using the VIN you provide. Your original keys will work perfectly with the new computer upon installation.
How do I find my current part number to check compatibility?
Your current part number is printed on a white sticker on the ECM itself. While this unit is compatible with all the part numbers listed in the description, providing your VIN is the most accurate way to guarantee a perfect match.
