An Expert’s Note on Minivan Electronics
“In vehicles like the Town & Country and Caravan, the ECM does more than just manage the engine. It’s the central hub that communicates with the transmission controller, the ABS module, and even the instrument cluster. When it fails, it can cause a cascade of confusing issues. A properly programmed, high-quality replacement isn’t just a repair—it’s a restoration of the vehicle’s entire electronic nervous system, ensuring everything works together as the engineers intended for a smooth, safe family ride.”
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this really Plug and Play?
Yes. During checkout, you will provide your vehicle’s VIN and current mileage. We use this information to program the module so that it is fully synchronized with your vehicle’s factory settings. Once you receive it, you simply disconnect the old unit and install this one. No further programming is needed.
Where is the engine computer located on my van?
On the 2006 Dodge Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country, the Electronic Control Module is typically located on the driver’s side (LH) fender in the engine bay. It’s a silver metal box with three large wiring harness connectors.
Do I need any special tools for installation?
No special tools are required. Basic hand tools, such as a socket set, are all that’s needed to unbolt the old module and install the new one. The most important step is to disconnect the vehicle’s battery before you begin.
Will this fix my specific check engine light codes?
This module is the correct solution for internal ECM failure codes, such as P0601 (Internal Control Module Memory Check Sum Error). If you have other codes, it’s important to diagnose those issues as well, but a faulty 2006 Town & Country engine computer is a very common failure point that causes a wide variety of codes and symptoms.
How do I find my current part number?
Your current part number is printed on a white sticker on your original engine computer. This unit is compatible with all part numbers listed in the product details, ensuring this is the right 2006 Town & Country engine computer for your vehicle.
