Expert Insight: The Critical “32 Tone Ring” Detail
For the 2004 2.7L engine in Sebring and Stratus models, Chrysler used a specific flywheel with 32 tone ring windows. The ECM must be calibrated precisely for this configuration to correctly read engine speed and position. Using a computer programmed for a different tone ring will result in immediate no-start conditions and fault codes. We ensure this 2004 Chrysler Sebring 2.7L ECM is correctly configured for the 32-window tone ring, eliminating one of the most common and frustrating compatibility mistakes made during this repair. You can install it with the confidence that it’s the right part, programmed correctly from the start.
