Common Symptoms & Your Direct-Fit Solution
If you’re experiencing any of the following issues, a failing ECM is the most likely culprit:

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this really a “Plug & Play” installation?
Yes, absolutely. Because we program the module to your specific VIN before shipping, it is ready for installation right out of the box. In most cases, you will only need basic hand tools to disconnect the battery, unbolt the old unit, and install the new one. No further programming is required.
How do I provide my VIN and mileage?
You can enter your vehicle’s VIN and current mileage during the checkout process. This information is crucial for us to program the module correctly for your specific minivan.
Will this fix my check engine light?
If the check engine light is on due to a faulty ECM (with codes like P0606 or communication errors), this replacement module will resolve the issue. After installation, we recommend clearing any stored codes with a standard OBD2 scanner to reset the system.
What about my vehicle’s security system (immobilizer)?
Our programming process includes syncing the module to your vehicle’s existing security information via the VIN. This ensures your factory keys will work immediately upon installation without any extra steps.
Does this part also fit the 2013 Chrysler Town & Country?
Yes. This 2013 Caravan engine computer is also the correct module for the 2013 Chrysler Town & Country equipped with the 3.6L engine, as they share the same platform and electronics.
