RE: CEL Not charging/ and Trans codes out of the blue...
I found a PCM for $100.00 online.... i think im just going to buy it and try it...i figure the dealer would charge almost as much for them to hook it up to a scanner and diagnose it....if the second pcm don't work then im really stumped...[/align]
RE: CEL Not charging/ and Trans codes out of the blue...
I think your on the right path with the PCM. At purchase, my truckwould start outin second gear, go into third, but no OD. Dealer charged as you guessed...$100 for diag. and still didn't say a diff. PCM would fix it. Long story short, after the third PCM from the parts store, the tranny worked fine!
Could have shorted the volt reg in there at the same time.
