Get Your Dodge 1500 Running Strong Again
Is your 2012 Dodge 1500 letting you down? Stalling, misfiring, or showing a persistent check engine light can bring your work to a halt and make you question your truck’s reliability.

Common Symptoms & Your Solution
If your truck is experiencing any of the following, a failing ECM is a likely cause:
- Persistent Check Engine Light: Especially with communication error codes like P0601, P0605, or P0606.
- Engine Performance Issues: Unexplained stalling, rough idling, hesitation during acceleration, or a noticeable loss of power.
- Poor Fuel Economy: A sudden drop in MPG can indicate the computer is not managing the engine correctly.
