Ecu replacement

jhoney · Jul 16, 2024

What do I need to look for when replacing my ecu. I have confirmed the ECU is the issue and now need to replace it. But pretty sure they are coded to the vehicle and dont want to pay the dealer for the repair. Do I need a special scanner or just buy the right ECU?

Give these guys a call, with your VIN handy, and they'll set you up with a new PCM already programmed.

Will I need to redo the key and the pats system

Call them with questions, but usually comes with two keys already programmed. You will need to get them cut to the same pattern as your stock keys so they can turn in your ignition and door locks.

I think you are referring to the PCM (Power Control Module) since that is really the only thing that drives Gen 2. If you are getting misfires, make sure you change plugs and coils. If a bad coil killed the PCM, the new one will also fail shortly after install.
It is an expense, but the new PCM warranty specifically says to put in new plugs and coils.

Already did coils plugs crankshaft position sensor camshaft position sensor timing chain set fuel pressure damper fuel pump and filter injectors and pulled my hair out in the process

After I did the timing chain I hooked up a light to the spark plug and it has intermittent spark.

Ecu or PCM you understand what I mean.

And FS1 calls it an ecu so semantics.
