Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly does “Plug & Play” mean?
It means the engine computer will arrive at your doorstep fully programmed with your vehicle’s specific VIN and mileage. All you have to do is disconnect the battery, remove your old computer, install this one, and reconnect the battery. No dealership visits or special tools are required for programming.
What information do you need from me after I order?
After you place your order, we will need your vehicle’s 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and the current mileage. This allows us to program the computer so it communicates perfectly with your Durango’s existing systems.
Will this computer fix my check engine light?
If the check engine light is caused by a faulty engine computer (often indicated by internal processor error codes like P0601), then yes, this part is the correct solution. However, it’s always wise to have your codes scanned to ensure the ECM is the root cause of the issue.
How do I find my original part number to confirm a match?
Your original part number is printed on a sticker on the engine computer itself. You can compare it to the list of compatible part numbers in our description to ensure a perfect match, although as long as your vehicle is a 2004 Durango with the 4.7L engine and 4×2, this unit is the correct one.
Do I need to send my old computer back?
No core charge or return is required for this part. You can keep or recycle your old computer at your convenience.
