Dodge PCM Connectors the Easy Way! 

Awesome! 💪💪💪

Thank you I appreciate that!

👍👍👍

Awesome

Ya man that hand has been though a lot let me tell ta!

I thank all you guys I willfiguarit out 11:19

Jerry Garcia had a kool hand too. Your video helped me, thank you bruh.

Thank you! I appreciate that

Absolutely, thanks for watching!

Another thing you can check: Symptom: Engine will not start. Gauges are inoperative. NO BUS message displayed on odometer. Problem 1 of 6: The 5v power supply from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is shorted due to a shorted Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor. Problem 2 of 6: The 5v power supply from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is shorted due to a shorted Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor Problem 3 of 6: The 5v power supply from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is shorted due to a shorted Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor Problem 4 of 6: The 5v power supply from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is shorted due to a shorted Throttle Position Sensor (TPS). Problem 5 of 6: The 5v power supply from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is shorted due to a shorted wire.. Problem 6 of 6: The 5v power supply from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is shorted due to a shorted Governor Pressure Sensor. Also check your grounds on the heads/firewall and fenders. And lastly as mentioned by the video above , the PCM may have broken solder joints due to heating and cooling of the main PCB. Not to blame Dodge/Chrysler, this is a pretty common problem with many electronic devices now using lead free solder. Any electronics that gets hot then cools is going to flex the main PCB and break the non lead solder that is used in electronics.

@@bobsoft thanks for the info, who ever owned it before has already replaced the tps, map sensors coil packs. The only thing that I have found that they haven't replaced is the cam and crankshaft sensor. I looked at them yesterday and unplugged and plugged them back inyesterday after it shut down, after doing this it didn't shut down anymore so I think that this may be the problem. I told my grandson they should have started with the cam and crank sensors. He said it was a young guy that owned it, I kinda think he was using the parts cannon method of trying to fix it. Lol We are going to replace them and see what happens. But thanks for the info, if this don't work I will check out some of your other suggestions.

@@jeffarp7409 The ECM is a common cause of the NO BUS. I posted a link for you but it got deleted. I own a 2002 Dakota and one day I know I will have to rebuild the computer.

@@bobsoft thanks for the effort anyway, we are going to replace the cam and crank sensors tomorrow maybe that will fix it for now hopefully. I got a buddy that works at O'rileys when I told him what truck he had, keep in mind he's a dodge guy like myself. The first thing he said was sell it. He said that they have a lot of problems out of those year models. I'm kinda starting to think he may be right. But we are going to keep swinging at it until it whoops me or I whoop it. Lol Thanks again

Yep it sure is 👍

Oh boy that sounds like a mess. Sorry man I am unfamiliar with that truck.

Yeah, I bought a harness from a half ton dodge ram also a 1996 like mine and the wires were totally different. If you Google PCM pin out chart for that truck, you should be able to determine the pin locations.

Yeah it’s tough to say without seeing it. Mine had a clip on the top and bottom that you use your thumb and index finger to undo both of them. Are both of yours broken?

No thankfully! I didn't see the bottom one until I used a mirror 🪞. I'll have to try to depress that bottom one and hopefully that will do the trick. It doesn't even really seem like the top ones are broken really, there's nothing that it clips into, it seems more like the plastic clip pops onto a metal square, it's hard to see though lol smh they could've made the things a little easier to figure out how to unplug geez. I thought it would be easy, just unplug, unscrew, rescrew and replug lol oh well, I may have to bring it in and have someone else put it in for me , if I can't get it.

Yeah I think you’re right it’s best to air on the side of caution. Hopefully it’s a simple fix, you might want to show some pictures of it to people on a forum for jeeps and see what they have to say. With me not being a mechanic unfortunately I can’t give you any specific good advice

@@StockyBaldman well thanks for replying anyways! God bless! 😉

Absolutely I hope it turns out well for you!

Every wire has a different colour line on it. There might be a green wire with a black line and a green wire with a white line. There’s also a chart in the manual that tells you which colour combo goes with what location on the connector.

I have the same issue his video helped me greatly

Awesome glad to hear!

I’m pretty sure there is a tool made by Thexton that is designed for stuff like that. Hopefully that helps

I would recommend downloading a copy of the manual. They are available online if you search for your particular year.
