About the Cardone Engine Control Module Product Line
The Cardone Engine Control Module product line focuses on remanufactured control modules that meet or exceed OEM specifications.

Detailed Product Description
This Cardone ECM features four rectangular connectors, each with 38 male pin terminals, ensuring proper communication with your vehicle’s engine systems. The aluminum housing provides durability and heat resistance, essential for engine compartment conditions. As a remanufactured unit, it has been tested and restored to function like a new module. Note that flash programming is required to match the ECM to your vehicle’s VIN and engine specifications, which is common for Chrysler powertrain control modules with a "v" suffix.
Common Applications and Issues Addressed
- Engine misfires or poor performance due to faulty ECM
- Check engine light triggered by ECM-related faults
- Failure to start or intermittent stalling in Chrysler Sebring or Dodge Stratus
- Communication errors between engine sensors and control module
- Replacement of damaged or non-functional original ECM
Installation Notes and Tips
Before replacing the original ECM, verify that it is the root cause of the issue. The Cardone 79-6102V requires flash programming to your vehicle’s VIN using a compatible diagnostic tool. Chrysler PCM units with a "v" suffix specifically need VIN programming to function correctly. Mount the ECM securely using the three mounting holes provided. Note that mounting hardware is not included. Follow manufacturer guidelines for disconnecting the battery and handling electronic components safely during installation.
Quality Assurance and Warranty
This remanufactured Cardone Engine Control Module undergoes rigorous testing to ensure functionality and reliability. It complies with e-waste standards and is built with quality aluminum housing for durability. While specific warranty details are not provided here, Cardone typically offers limited warranties on remanufactured ECMs to cover defects in materials and workmanship.
