An Expert’s Note from the Shop Floor:
“Over my 20 years with a wrench in my hand, I’ve seen countless customers replace transmissions, fuel pumps, and ignition coils only to find the real problem was the PCM all along. A failing computer can send bad signals that make other perfectly good parts seem broken. By starting with the ‘brain’ of the vehicle, especially a professionally programmed one like this, you’re not just replacing a part—you’re ensuring the entire system communicates correctly. It’s the smartest first step for these symptoms.”
