Is Your Chrysler 200 or Dodge Avenger Running Rough?
A faulty Engine Control Module (ECM) can be the source of countless frustrating and seemingly random issues. If you’re dealing with a persistent check engine light, poor fuel economy, stalling, or a car that simply won’t start, the brain of your engine might be the culprit. This isn’t just an inconvenience; it’s a reliability issue that can leave you stranded. Our pre-programmed ECM is the definitive, hassle-free solution to restore your vehicle’s performance and give you back your peace of mind.
Common Symptoms & Your Solution
A failing ECM can manifest in various ways. You might be experiencing one or more of the following problems. This unit is the direct solution for these issues and the associated Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs):
- Check Engine Light: An illuminated CEL is a primary indicator, often with codes like P0601 (Internal Control Module Memory Check Sum Error) or P0606 (ECM/PCM Processor Fault).
- No-Start Condition: The engine cranks but refuses to start, or starts and immediately stalls.
- Poor Performance: Noticeable loss of power, hesitation during acceleration, and rough idling.
- Erratic Shifting: The 6-speed automatic transmission may shift harshly, late, or unpredictably.
- Decreased Fuel Economy: The engine isn’t running efficiently, causing you to spend more at the pump.
This professionally prepared 2013 Chrysler 200 2.4L ECM is your answer. We take the guesswork and complexity out of the repair, delivering a unit that’s ready to install right out of the box.
An Expert’s Note: For years, replacing an ECM was a job reserved for the dealership, involving expensive hardware, specialized software, and costly labor for programming. It was a major headache.

This means you or your trusted mechanic can perform the swap in your own garage, saving hundreds of dollars and days of downtime. It’s the smartest way to solve a complex electronic problem.
