From the Technician’s Bench: The Power of Pre-Programming
In the past, replacing an engine computer was a logistical nightmare. You’d have the car towed to a dealer, wait for them to order the part, and then pay a premium for several hours of labor just to program the new unit to the car. The vehicle would be out of commission for days. Our pre-programming service changes the game completely. We handle the complex part in-house, using the same data the dealership does. When you receive your Programmed 2013 Chrysler 200 2.4L Engine Computer, the hard work is already done. For a DIY mechanic or an independent shop, this means you can complete the job in your own bay or driveway, turning a multi-day ordeal into a straightforward parts swap.
Frequently Asked Questions
What information do you need to program this computer?
To ensure a perfect Plug & Play experience, we require your vehicle’s 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and the current mileage. This allows us to load the correct software and security information for your specific car.
Is this really a “Plug & Play” part?
Absolutely. “Plug & Play” means no additional programming, software flashing, or key relearning is required after you install it. Simply disconnect the battery, swap the old computer with this new one, reconnect the battery, and start the car.
How can I be sure my original ECM is the problem?
While the symptoms listed above are strong indicators, we always recommend a thorough diagnosis by a qualified mechanic. Common diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) pointing to a bad ECM include P0600-P0606 (Internal Control Module errors) or loss of communication codes (U-codes).
Will this fix my check engine light?
If the check engine light is caused by an internal failure of the original engine computer, then yes, this part will resolve the issue. However, you must first repair any other problems that may have caused the original computer to fail, such as a faulty sensor or wiring short.
What is the warranty on this part?
This unit is backed by our one-year replacement warranty. We stand behind our products to give you peace of mind with your purchase.
Does this part require a ‘core charge’ or sending my old part back?
