Frequently Asked Questions
What information do you need to program the ECM?
We require your truck’s 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and current mileage. This ensures the module is a perfect electronic match for your vehicle’s specific configuration and security settings.
Is this really “Plug & Play”?
Yes. Because we program the unit to your VIN before shipping, it will not require any additional programming from a dealership. Once installed, you may need to perform a simple key relearn procedure, which involves turning the key on and off a few times, but no special tools are needed.
Will this fix my specific check engine light codes?
If your diagnostic trouble codes (like P0601-P0606) point to an internal controller failure, this 2012 Dodge 1500 4.7L ECM is the correct solution. However, if your codes relate to other sensors or systems, you should diagnose those issues first, as the ECM may not be the root cause.
How do I find my original part number?
Your original part number is printed on a sticker directly on your current engine computer. The module is typically located in the engine bay. Matching your number to the list of compatible parts on this page ensures a perfect fit.
Do I need to send my old part back?
No core charge or return is required for this part, saving you the time and hassle of shipping your old, non-working module back.
