You can never assume you have a bad PCM. You have to eliminate everything but the PCM. You have to verify all the inputs and outputs to the PCM first. I record those codes, then clear the computer and see if any come back. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.
