Where can I buy a new PCM for my truck??? And should I go OEM or after market????

 

autocomputerexchange.com

go there and you can send in yours to get rebuilt, or, buy a remanufactured one (which is faster, so ive heard). come with a warranty and all.

some one else will have to chime in on aftermarket brands

 

all they have are ECM's... i need a PCM.... thanks tho

would this work??

 

idk what you plan on doing with your truck, but since yours is OBDI like mine, the only option as far as after-market computer anything is the MOPAR PCM. requires use of 92 octane though...just an option. if you wanna stay stock, then some companies will sell you a pcm and ship it to you, then you just ship it back to them and get your core charge back.

 

i thought an ECM and PCM were the same thing.
somebody bought a refurb about 1-2 weeks ago because of an O2 sensor problem that wouldn't clear up, but i don't remember if he ever posted back or not. i'll find it tonight.

 

It is, and how many damn threads we got going for the OP's same topic/issue?

 

Tinkerinman, I read all your other posts.To me it sounds like the alt. With almost 300K it's on it's way out, if it 's never been replaced. Also, just because it still starts, doesn't mean the battery isn't bad.These components don't last forever. I would be very suprised if it was the PCM. Just my 2 cents.

 

I didnt think it was the PCM... I know things dont last forever. been working on cars and trucks for 12 years.... built my first one at 13. complete overhaul. but it was a chevy.... dodge is a bit different... im checkin all my connections and wiring today for the alt. and gna have battery tested too... ill see what comes up.

 

PCM [Powertrain Control Module] ECM [Electronic Control Module] is the same thing - And tinkerman, its usually more efficient and productive to keep the same problem within the same thread.
For instance, reading this thread, no one even knows what your problem is, and I'm not about to go combing through your posts to find out.

A voltage regulator bypass is possible, as you know if you've read through my thread.
Have you determined the output of the alternator ?
