Product Details

Cardone’s Engine Control Module line focuses on remanufactured electronic and powertrain control units that are reverse engineered to identify common failure points and correct original design weaknesses. For this application, the 79-9682 ECM is built to match the original equipment configuration for 1988 Dodge D100, D150, D250, Ramcharger, W100, W150, and W250 models using OE part number 4379682. This part cross-references Dodge 4379682 for the same application.

The remanufacturing process includes re-soldering or replacement of critical internal components, followed by computer-based testing to verify operation. The result is a replacement engine control module intended to restore proper fuel, ignition, and drivability control in the vehicle’s original system.

What This ECM Helps Resolve

• No-start or hard-start conditions related to ECM failure
• Intermittent stalling or rough running caused by control module faults
• Driveability issues tied to poor internal electrical connections
• Problems traced to a failed original engine control module
• Replacement needs for damaged or nonfunctional OE module 4379682

Installation Notes and Tips

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. Confirm the OE number on the original module matches the application before installation. This unit is pre-programmed at the factory and does not require flash programming.
