No one has a very good rep when it comes to PCM's....... Some are far worse than others.... but, at least, at your local parts store, you can talk face to face with a real human....

I have an update on my truck. Just now getting around to updating this as I’ve been busy. A few weeks ago I got a “no bus” while driving. Got the truck home and started T/S. Well comes to find out one of the pins in one of the ECM connectors was burnt. So I spliced in the pin that was burnt and replaced the outer shell of the connector by getting a connector from the jy. It seemed to have fixed the “no bus” issue however I still had the intermittent voltage drop. That issue was the two wire pigtail connector on the alternator the wires are loose and kinda back off the connector. Got a new connector and I haven’t had any issues since. I’m just glad I didn’t have to buy a new ECM
