Product Details

Cardone’s Engine Control Module line focuses on remanufactured electronic and powertrain control units that are tested to meet or exceed original equipment performance. For this application, the module is rebuilt at Cardone’s Philadelphia manufacturing plant, where critical electrical points are reworked and each unit is validated before release. Part number 79-9320V is intended for the 2002 Dodge Dakota and cross-references Dodge OE numbers 56029352AA, 56029352AB, and 56029352AC for the same application.

Common Problems This ECM Can Address

• Engine no-start or intermittent start concerns tied to a failed control module
• Check engine light conditions caused by internal ECM faults
• Driveability issues related to corrupted or unstable module output
• Communication problems between the ECM and vehicle systems
• Failure caused by heat, vibration, or aged solder joints inside the module

Installation Notes

Before replacing the original ECM, verify the root cause of the failure. Common causes include poor grounds, power supply issues, damaged wiring harnesses, and shorted solenoids or relays. This module requires flash programming, and the installer must provide accurate VIN and mileage information. For Chrysler PCM applications identified with a “V” suffix, VIN programming is required. Confirm the OE number on the original unit matches the Cardone application before installation.

Quality Assurance

Each Cardone remanufactured control module is computer tested or bench-tested, depending on application, and validated on-vehicle for durability and performance. The remanufacturing process also reduces the energy and raw materials needed to produce a new part by about 80%, supporting a more resource-efficient repair path.
