Frequently Asked Questions
What does “Plug & Play” actually mean?
It means the engine computer will arrive at your door fully programmed with your vehicle’s specific VIN and mileage. All you need to do is disconnect the battery, swap the old computer with this new one, and reconnect the battery. No additional programming or dealer visits are necessary.
What information do you need from me for programming?
After you place your order, we will require your vehicle’s 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and the current mileage. This allows us to program the unit to match your exact vehicle configuration.
Will this fix my Check Engine Light?
If the Check Engine Light is on due to an internal fault in your old computer (like code P0601), this replacement unit will solve the problem. However, if the light is on for another reason (e.g., a bad oxygen sensor), that issue will still need to be addressed separately.
Is this compatible with my 2009 Chrysler Town & Country 3.8L?
Yes, absolutely. This engine computer is fully compatible with both the 2008-2009 Dodge Caravan and the 2008-2009 Chrysler Town & Country models equipped with the 3.8L V6 engine.
Do I need any special tools for installation?
No special tools are required. Basic hand tools, such as a socket set, are all that is typically needed to access and replace the engine computer. The process is designed to be straightforward for anyone with basic mechanical skills.
