I received this car and it was in limp mode. I consulted with one of your mechanics and it was determined that the PCM is the problem. My problem is; I don't know which number to get the PCM repaired to. I have three different numbers for some reason. I did discover that the engine has been changed so it does not have the original engine in it. However it does have what appears to be the original PCM as the tag has the last six digits of the VIN printed on the lower right corner of the tag. But just below that tag is another tag with a completely different number on it. The original tag has pn p68206706AD
The lower tag has pn P05150845AD.
When I called Chrysler and gave them the VIN, they gave me pn 5180845AD
I'm confused as to which number to use to get the PCM repaired or replaced. Or am I barking up the wrong tree? Do I need the engine number and get it flashed to the engine number? Which is next to impossible to get. Please help. Lol

The 68 number is not the part number that you order the replacement with. That is either an engineering number or a supplier number depending on the placement of it on the tag.

The P515 number is the correct replacement part number for this vehicle.

I am attaching the info below on how replace the ECM including the part number. You are going to need to program the PCM after replacement which requires a scan tool if you don't have one.

As for the engine, that does not matter if it was not the original engine as long as it is the same 1.4L engine that came in the vehicle, it should be just fine.

Please run through this info and let us know if you have other questions. Thanks
