hi everyone just got on to this forum maybe someone could point me in the right direction. was driving and gauge spiked on and off to and from work. told alternator out thinking that was problem and it wasnt. voltage regulator in computer **** out on me. Cant seem to find a newer computer for my truck anywhere. i got a 2002 2500 with 5.9 360. im looking for a 56040 205AC. not wanting to get a new one at dealer for 550 they want to beat me over head for and 120 to install. any ideas, sites, or what not i could find what im looking for. thankyou

 

Junk yards? A lot of yards will have a parts locater service as well. Might wanna call around.

 

ya waiting till monday to do that. any ideas of a perfromace pcm of what they run or where to get. it seems like a 205AC is a rare computer

 

There was a Mopar Performance PCM available at one point, but, I am not sure what year trucks that covered. Good luck finding one out in the real world though.... Don't think I have ever seen a parts company carrying one. (but then, I haven't looked either. ) You can get an SCT tuner from HemiFever here on this site (just PM him) for 275. From all reports I have read, it is a significant improvement over stock. (which probably has the death flash....... something else you can find information on in the FAQ section of this forum.)

I forgot today was sunday..... I seem to have a bit of trouble keeping track of the days....

Welcome to DF!

 

You can still get the mopar performance pcm at the dealer, they are around 400- 600$ and they make a big difference.

 

to the op, look on ebay, there are several reputable computer refurbishers who will get you a computer preprogrammed with the latest flash for about 220.

 

I had real good luck with All Computer Resources from Miami . The other real popular one out of Davie,FL I heard was not good at all.

 

i tried one on ebay but they sent me one from a 1500 and said they cant get ones for a 2500 becuase they are rares and what not

 

biggest reason for failure is moisture inside the pcm, and as far as I know the 2500 360 and 1500 360 use the same pcm.

 

not in 02 thats when 1500's switched to new body..and go to car-part.com and enter in your info i found 5 of those pcm's in my area if your a 5.9 auto vin z..also if your really stuck i could go grab one from my buddy who owns the local truck wrecker here and get it shipped to you...
