Joe , There does not seem to be too many out there. Found one from a 2005 but it looked like crap and had a no return policy, as is sale. $160 shipped but i don't feel like pissing away $160 to get another fried one.

I know I am not the first guy who has needed one of these.It sounded kind of fishy to me. If you can ask him about that I would like to compare answers with the one i got from my shop manager.

I will be on the phone with him first thing in the AM...

Car is on the way to the dealership. They will try to re-flash the existing [service manager says they sometimes lose their memory] PCM with he original tune. If that does not work then they will get a new PCM unit and they have assured me that it will be re-flashed to stock and ready to take any tune I would like to load in it. Hope it works out as easy as it sounds typing it.

Good luck Rick! Keep us updated!

Hey Rick, sorry for the late response...
I left message at the dealership for my guy to call me, they just informed me a little while ago that he's out on vacation this week.
But glad you are getting it taken care of.
Sorry I couldn't help you out more...

OK Car is running at this point . It was a blown fuse to the PCM fuse is not located in the fuse box which is why i missed it Dealership had it for all of an hour and it is up and running. Now I must find out why fuse blew, but one step at a time. YESSSS.

Glad to see the car is running Rick!

Got another call from dealership. Reason why fuse blew. Wire to C O P #8 partially melted due to laying against upper engine seems to have been routed poorly ,this also explains backfire/ detonation noise we heard ,when cop shorted out it either overfed or starved the #8 cylinder causing noises and then car shut down when fuse blew.

Gus lets just stick to the vernacular. The nuns tried to improve me for years with very little success. As they used to tell me "its a lucky girl who misses you Mr. Carment"

Rick that is Awesome News!!! cheers

..I am so glad all that was wrong was a small wire and a stinkin fuse.... clap

..Please let us in on the location of the PCM fuse..so incase anyone of us has a similar problem..We should start keep a nice log of different fixes to the problems with our babies in the future..Like location of things ..ETC (cabin air filter) for example..The BulletMan..AKA Uncle RICK is back in action!!!!
