In this video I follow up on a previous diagnose we had on a 2010 Dodge Ram 2500 where I made the call on the ECM: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIWJvZG76dI&t Now it’s time to install the used ECM and make all of the other modules shake hands and play nice with it. -Enjoy!

great!!!
Every dodge that I have done, I use my Autel im608 to change vin, never needed to use the immobilizer function yet once the vin is changed.
Makes sense to a retired master mechanic.
Comment #190!!
Only one complaint, if you can do it I’ve got no chance, lol. Really good video, detective Eric
ican see why people out of state come to you
It always sounds like you say "Welcome to the Self Made Auto Channel" lol
How do you service the 4wd on a solid axle, The actuator fail?
Crossed 🤞
I don't get it Shop A can't figure out problem they call you.. you work on the vehicle find said problem. fix vehicle now they're going to come back and finish taping up the wires and charge the customer accordingly?first of all I having to go through all the diagnostics of finding the problem I don't want somebody else messing with the wires and shorting it back out again… Second of all now isn't it your problem since they couldn't figure it out or is this just the neighborly thing to do is to help out?
Are you fixing a computer or a car? Dang you need to wear lots of hats to fix today's vehicles. The days of the shade tree mechanic are long gone.
I would love to see a how to on the otc brake-out box and how it works and how to use it. Thanks
Do you ever get a bad salvage ECM?
Couldn't u just disconnect the skim sensor while programing Vin and after program, plug it bak in?
Another ECM to send to Big Clive!
watching this video gave me severe headache..a maze of diagnosis.. believe me Eric O if you can do it, I can't do it.
Just a quick question. 2005 Hemi Ram 2500, no power in open loop. If you try to take off while cold in open loop it stutters and sputters. It runs fine in closed loop and no money light no codes. Any ideas?
Thanks for thecfollow up
Caution third
Could the OTC Scan tool been used to do the programming because it comes with the pass through device? Basically could it have been used from start to finish with the subscription?
The highest possible quality in autodiagnstic and autorepairs from SMA with no expense on tools to get the job done. No matter if it was a rodent fest truck. Awsome material as usual. Would love to see more of this porpietary tools and SW in action for in deep service.
Have you tried Autel j2534 passthrough device?
