04 Cummins 600 - Dealer Can't Reprogram ECM
Sorry for the all caps. I am not mad at anyone here, I just typed it that way on another post in this forum...
HI ALL... I AM NEW HERE....I AM IN NEED OF ASSISTANCE...
SO, I JUST PURCHASED THE DODGE TRUCK IN MY SIGNATURE, AND I BOUGHT IT WITH THE BRAKE AND ABS LIGHTS ON. I GOT A GOOD PRICE BECAUSE OF IT. I DID BUY IT FROM A USED CAR DEALER.
I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL DODGE DEALER TO HAVE THE CODE PULLED. AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY COULD NOT GET INTO THE ABS SYSTEM BECAUSE THE VIN NUMBER THE ECM WAS GIVING OUT WAS NOT THE CORRECT VIN NUMBER.
I DON'T BELIEVE IT IS A DIFFERENT MOTOR, THERE IS NOTHING HOOKED UP TO THE OBDII CONNECTOR OR THE ECM. THERE IS A QUADZILLA XZILLARAIDER VERSION 1 WITH ONLY A MAP SENSOR, AND FUEL PRESSURE CONNECTION WHICH I HAVE BYPASSED TO NO AVAIL, AND IT WAS BYPASSED WHEN THE DODGE DEALER LOOKED AT IT.
I DON'T HAVE ANY DRIVEABILITY ISSUES WITH IT AT ALL, JUST THE ABS SYSTEM IS OBVIOUSLY INOPPERATIVE. WHICH BEING AS MY WIFE WILL DRIVE THIS TRUCK IS WHY I WANT IT WORKING
THE DEALERS SAID THAT THE PROPER VIN COULD NOT BE PROGRAMMED IN, AND THE ONLY SOLUTION WAS A NEW ECM AT THE COST OF TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS PLUS PROGRAMMING.
IS THERE ANOTHER WAY? COULD SOMEBODY HAVE USED A PROGRAMMER? IF SO WHICH ONES WOULD BE LIKELY? COULD IT BE REPAIRED USING A DIFFERENT METHOD?
HELP AND THANKS

Sounds like the programmer erased all the crucial info. Could find out who had the truck before hand and find out what he did to it. But the chances of finding out who is pretty slim. So it's sounding like a new ECM.

Hey I had the Abs light, brake light, and CEL all come on and the speedo didnt work! Called bully dog and they wrote a program for me. Fixed er right up! Dont know if your problem was caused by a Triple Dog but maybe give them a call and see if they can help u out

You bought a truck with a fried ECM. The programmer that was on the truck previously loaded an invalid VIN on to the ECM. The reason the ABS and Brake lights are on is the ABS computer has a different vin loaded than the ECM.
I would try another dealer first. I had a Smarty do the exact same thing to my personal 06. I have friends at the dealer (perks of the job) and they were able to reprogram, but it still didn't run right. I will tell your 2k for an ECM is outta control. . . . . . .
