Detailed Description

Dorman 318-082 is an engine control module built for electronic engine management on select Ram trucks. It receives data from vehicle sensors and uses that information to regulate ignition and fueling for consistent engine operation. This ECM is remanufactured and tested against original equipment performance requirements, making it a direct replacement option for service work on 2012 Ram 1500 and 2012 Ram 2500 models. This part cross-references Chrysler (e.g., R5150633AB) for the same application.

What It Helps Solve

  • Engine no-start or intermittent start concerns related to ECM failure
  • Rough running caused by incorrect ignition or fuel control
  • Check engine light conditions tied to module faults
  • Communication or drivability issues traced to the control module
  • Replacement needs after electrical or internal module damage
