is there a good way to change my PCM in my 2002 Dodge Caravan..
I was wondering if there is book or website that I can go to , for help?

( In my van, the PCM is going out .) It keeps cutting off my heater , radio, power windows, wipers, and the tranmission is not shifting .

Please reply to me @ chariliesonlyangel2004@yahoo.com ..


THANKS

Are you sure its the PCM and not the BCM
try this
disconnect battery cables
turn key on
touch the two cables together for about 15 min
then turn key off and reconnect the battery cables
that may reset the BCM and will also rest the PCM

as for tranny if it is still not shifting I would suspect the tranny solenoid pack on the side of the tranny

if to replace PCM or BCM need to be programmed by the dealer or the van will not start and drive

Welll,, did ever thing that you stated to do ,and it did not work.. STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS>..BOO HOOO...


I talked to a tech from Dodge ( but he is not in my state). He states that there might be a problem in the wiring harness?
I put the van in park it everything may stay on ... BUT every time I put the van in gear, everthing will go out again .
.. What dose that sound like to you ???
