Is Your Family’s Minivan Suddenly Unreliable?
A failing engine computer in your 2006 Dodge Caravan can turn your dependable family hauler into a source of constant stress.

Expert Insight: The DIY-Friendly Fix for a Dealer-Level Problem
I’ve seen it hundreds of times: a customer’s minivan gets towed in with a ‘crank, no-start’ issue. They’ve already replaced the battery, checked the fuel pump, and are at their wit’s end. The scanner can’t even communicate with the factory computer. That’s a classic sign of a failed ECM. In the past, this meant a mandatory tow to the dealership for a new module and expensive programming. This pre-programmed 2006 Dodge Caravan engine computer changes the game. It allows a confident DIYer or local mechanic to perform the repair right in the driveway, saving hundreds in towing and labor costs and getting the family’s essential vehicle running again in under an hour.
