Cardone 79-9825V Engine Control Module

Remanufactured ECM for Neon Applications

Cardone 79-9825V is a remanufactured engine control module for select 1998-1999 Dodge Neon and Plymouth Neon applications. It is built for vehicles that require flash programming and VIN-specific setup, with fitment tied to OE numbers 5269 825AA through AJ and 5293 150AA.

Key Features

• Remanufactured Original Equipment-style engine control module for a precise fit
• Two rectangular connectors with 40-pin male terminals
• Aluminum housing for OE-style mounting and durability
• Critical components are re-soldered or replaced during remanufacturing
• 100% computer tested for function and reliability
• Vehicle validation testing is performed to confirm durability and performance
• Flash programming required; VIN and mileage data are needed for setup

Product Details

The Cardone Engine Control Module line focuses on restoring factory-level electronic control after original module failure. For this application, the 79-9825V is a remanufactured ECM that addresses the needs of 1998-1999 Dodge Neon and Plymouth Neon models with California or Federal emission systems. Cardone reverse engineers failed units to identify common design weaknesses, then corrects those issues during remanufacturing at its Philadelphia facility. This part cross-references Chrysler 5269825AA and Dodge 05269825AA for the same application.

What This ECM Can Help Resolve

• No-start or hard-start conditions related to a failed engine control module
• Driveability problems caused by corrupted or unstable ECM operation
• Communication faults tied to internal module failure
• Emission-control performance issues linked to incorrect engine management
• Intermittent electrical faults caused by damaged internal solder joints

Installation Notes

Fits 1998-1999 Dodge Neon, N/A, with California Emission System and OE numbers 5269 825AA through AJ or 5293 150AA. Fits 1998-1999 Dodge Neon, N/A, with Federal Emission System and OE numbers 5269 825AA through AJ or 5293 150AA. Fits 1998-1999 Plymouth Neon, N/A, with California Emission System and OE numbers 5269 825AA through AJ or 5293 150AA. Fits 1998-1999 Plymouth Neon, N/A, with Federal Emission System and OE numbers 5269 825AA through AJ or 5293 150AA. Flash programming is required, and accurate VIN and mileage information must be provided. Before replacing the original ECM, verify grounds, power feeds, wiring harness condition, and related relays or solenoids to confirm the original module is the source of the fault. Chrysler PCM units identified with a V suffix require VIN programming.

Quality Assurance

Each Cardone remanufactured ECM is computer tested, and application-specific units are bench-tested or validated on the vehicle depending on the design. Re-soldering critical connections helps reduce intermittent electrical failures and supports longer service life. The remanufacturing process also reduces raw material and energy use compared with producing a new part.
