An Expert’s Note on VIN Programming
“We often hear from customers who tried using a generic computer from a salvage yard, only to find their car still won’t start. This is because the Chrysler/Dodge security system (known as SKIM or WCM) is tied directly to the original ECM’s VIN. If the VINs don’t match, the system immobilizes the engine. Our pre-programming service completely bypasses this issue. We handle the complex part so you can enjoy a simple, successful repair.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this unit truly Plug & Play?
Yes. Because we program the computer to your vehicle’s specific VIN and mileage before shipping, it will integrate seamlessly with your existing systems. No further programming or dealer intervention is necessary.
How do I provide my VIN and mileage?
You will be prompted to enter your vehicle’s VIN and current mileage during the checkout process. Please ensure this information is accurate to guarantee proper programming.
Will this fix my check engine light?
If the check engine light is caused by an internal failure of the original engine computer (common diagnostic codes include P0601-P0606), then this replacement unit will solve the problem. It is always recommended to clear all codes after installation.
Does this fit the 2012 Dodge Avenger as well?
Yes, this engine computer is fully compatible with the 2012 Dodge Avenger equipped with the 2.4L engine and the 6-speed automatic transmission.
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 part. PCM (Powertrain Control Module) is a term for a module that controls both the engine and the transmission. For this vehicle, this part serves as the primary powertrain controller.
Do I need to have my keys reprogrammed?
No. Our VIN programming process ensures the computer recognizes your existing keys, so no key reprogramming is needed.
