Frequently Asked Questions
Is this unit truly “Plug & Play”?
Yes. We use the VIN you provide during checkout to flash the module with your vehicle’s exact software and security information. This allows you to install it without needing any additional programming from a dealer or mechanic.
How do I provide my vehicle’s information?
After you place your order, we will contact you for your vehicle’s VIN and current mileage. This information is essential for programming the computer correctly. Please ensure it is accurate to avoid any delays.
Will this fix my check engine light?
If the check engine light is caused by an internal failure of the original engine computer (common codes include P0601, P0606, U0100), this replacement unit is designed to be the correct solution. However, we always recommend having a qualified mechanic diagnose the vehicle to confirm the ECM is the root cause before ordering.
What is the difference between an ECM, ECU, and PCM?
The terms are often used interchangeably. ECM (Engine Control Module) and ECU (Engine Control Unit) typically refer to the same component. PCM (Powertrain Control Module) is a term for a module that controls both the engine and the transmission. For your 2011-2012 Dodge Journey 3.6L Engine Computer, this part serves as the primary control unit.
Which part numbers does this unit replace?
This module is a direct replacement for a wide range of OEM part numbers, including 05150656AA, 5150618AB, 68092683AC, 68092683, 68080354, 05150618, 68080351, 68092680, and 68092681.
