otherwise verify that you have external PATs and find a PCM in a junk yard and replace at a fraction of the cost, they seem to run about $75 to $100 and I was looking at a SVT one ...


edit: sorry I am a bit ticked as I think about this more, how in the hell can they say that you need a new PCM if it only works when they move some wires around, I mean hello that tells me there is a problem with the wiring not necassary the PCM. get the wiring to work first then test the PCM, [censored] morons ... of course the PCM will not work it there is a wiring problem



I have to call him back in a minute to ask him something.

Anyone have any specific questions I should ask? I'm going to ask him to explain what they did and how they know it is the ECM.

** I just called him. They couldn't get any info. from the computer, whatever wire is causing the problem shorted outt he computer. By moving some wires around they were able to get a bit of a spark (he said) and read that the computer is no good. **
