Cardone 79-7426V Engine Control Module (ECM)

Remanufactured ECM for Chrysler and Dodge

This Cardone Engine Control Module is a remanufactured electronic and powertrain control module built for OE-style fit and function. It is engineered for 2002 Chrysler Town & Country and 2002 Dodge Grand Caravan applications that require flash programming and accurate VIN and mileage data.

Part number 79-7426V is built with two rectangular connectors, aluminum housing, and 40-pin male terminals on each connector. For Chrysler PCM applications with a “V” suffix, VIN programming is required.

Key Features

• Remanufactured Original Equipment-style ECM for direct vehicle fit
• Two rectangular connectors with 40-pin male terminals
• Aluminum housing for OE-style mounting and protection
• Critical components are re-soldered or replaced during remanufacturing
• 100% computer tested for function and reliability
• Flash programming required for vehicle-specific setup
• Earth-friendly remanufacturing process reduces raw material and energy use versus new part production

Detailed Description

Cardone 79-7426V is a remanufactured engine control module for Chrysler and Dodge powertrain applications. The unit is reverse engineered to identify common failure points, then rebuilt at Cardone’s Philadelphia manufacturing plant with attention to electrical integrity and long-term performance. This approach helps restore proper engine management, fuel control, and communication with vehicle systems.

Compatible with 2002 Chrysler Town & Country and 2002 Dodge Grand Caravan, this ECM is intended for vehicles with the listed OE numbers and requires vehicle-specific flash programming on or off the vehicle. Accurate VIN and mileage information are required during setup. This part cross-references Chrysler OE numbers such as 04727425AA and 4727425AA for the same application.

What This ECM Helps Address

• No-start or hard-start conditions caused by a failed control module
• Check engine light concerns related to ECM internal faults
• Communication or drivability issues tied to powertrain control failure
• Intermittent electrical problems from weakened solder joints or internal connections
• Vehicle-specific programming issues after module replacement

Installation Notes and Tips

• Verify the original failure before replacing the ECM; inspect grounds, power feeds, wiring harnesses, relays, and solenoids.
• Confirm the Ford Engineering ID or OE reference is not being confused with a different module application when cross-checking parts.
• For Chrysler PCM units with a “V” suffix, VIN programming is required.
• Flash programming is required for this module, and accurate VIN and mileage data must be entered during setup.
• Follow an OE-approved service manual for programming and any required anti-theft or relearn procedures.

Quality Assurance

Cardone remanufactures this ECM to meet or exceed OE performance targets, then validates it with computer testing or bench testing depending on application. On-car validation is used where applicable to confirm durability and performance before release.
