About the Cardone Engine Control Module Product Line

The Cardone Engine Control Module product line focuses on remanufactured control modules that meet OEM specifications. These ECMs are engineered to provide reliable engine management functions, including fuel injection, ignition timing, and emissions control. The 79-8719V model is part of this line, offering a balance of quality and environmental responsibility through e-waste compliance.

Product Details and Specifications

This ECM features three rectangular connectors, each equipped with 32 male pin terminals, ensuring secure and precise electrical connections. The aluminum housing provides durability and effective heat dissipation, which is critical for maintaining stable operation under engine bay conditions. Flash programming is required to match the vehicle’s specific parameters, so professional programming tools should be used during installation. Note that the PROM is not removable, and the unit is not flashable after programming.

Compatible Vehicles and Common Applications

This Engine Control Module is compatible with Dodge Dakota models requiring part number 79-8719V. It is designed to address engine control issues such as:

  • Engine misfires or rough idling
  • Check engine light related to ECM faults
  • Starting difficulties or no-start conditions
  • Poor fuel economy due to incorrect engine management
  • Transmission shifting problems linked to engine control

Installation Notes and Tips

Before replacing the original ECM, verify that it is the root cause of the vehicle’s issues. The replacement ECM requires flash programming to the vehicle’s VIN and specific calibration settings. Use a compatible diagnostic scanner or programming tool to complete this step. Ensure all connectors are securely attached to avoid communication errors. Mount the unit using the three mounting holes; mounting hardware is not included and must be sourced separately.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

This remanufactured Cardone ECM undergoes rigorous testing to meet OEM standards. It complies with e-waste regulations, supporting environmental sustainability. While specific warranty details are not provided here, Cardone typically offers limited warranties on remanufactured control modules. Consult the product documentation or supplier for exact warranty terms.
