I have swapped computers on older vehicles without complications before but from what I am reading on a 2001, with the VIN actually being programmed into the computer and CTM, I do not think it's as easy as the older ones, right?
Can I go to a junkyard and have my VIN programmed into the junkyard replacement?
Failing that, any reviews on the various computer rebuilders, who is better than who?
I am just looking to get it rebuilt "stock" but with any programming upgrades that Mopar has come up with for it in the last 15 years to be "built in" to the rebuild.
and in case youre asking, I have a Po204 fuel injector driver circuit issue. I have checked the wiring, replaced the pigtail (solder/heat shrink, no Scotchlocks or butt connectors for me) and swapped injectors around among that bank of the engine, plus swapped in 2 other, different injectors (same as stock, I have a couple sets of stock OEM injectors for these particular vehicles laying around) and still same issue on same cylinder.
I take the one from #4 and put it elsewhere and problem remains with #4 , and I cannot believe that 2 other injectors I swapped in are both bad too....
Truck has almost 260,000 on it and I am wanting to swap in a fresh engine (that I have on the stand as we speak) when the need arises since this truck is rust free from the South....
but I want to solve the computer issue while it is on this engine, so as to not complicate matters once I eventually do the swap....
