I heard that the skim is connected to the idle sensor. And I've read that the skim is part of the security system. I have also read that you have to reset the crank sensor. when changing a CPU. I guess when they made different models they changed how the skim worked. I never noticed with the key chip security had dad on the column.

[@sheogorath5736]

I have a 2006 Mercury Milan that I bought a re-manufactured PCM for. Supposedly they reprogrammed it to my VIN number at their shop, but it is producing error P0100 (networking error) and the transmission feels like it is in limp-mode. They claim the TCM probably picked up some code from their test car, a 2006 Ford Fusion, ... and all I have to do is have the dealer program the PCM while installed on my vehicle, connected to all the other modules to get it working. Sounds logical, but there is still a lot of uncertainty. Also it will cost a bit of money to get done through a mechanic since I don't own a $1000 scan tool already :-).

You could also replace matching key, security module, and ECU with no need for programming VIN: my understanding.

[@jamiehume9730]

I could really use your help. I have a 2011 ram 1500 and I had to put in a used ignition control module and the vin stored in it is different then the vin in the computer so now all my idiot lights are on because the dodge dealership changed the computer vin to match the ignition but couldn’t change the skim module to accept it. I have a scan tool but not one that lets you rewrite the vin. I’m out of money and no one on the coast of Mississippi has a scan tool that can help supposedly

[@welltekdiagnostics6835]

based on year, on dodge mostly on skeem/ wcm or WIN module plus PCM,,if you replace PCM you need to update your vin .other module if they are used modules you can't do it becouse your vin from the used(Salvage car) one is different than what you have ..So only PCM can be a used computer(salvage care) to be reprogrammed..also dodge will not let you change VIN on Security modules once you program it (SKEEM/WIN/WCM)

@@vehix411 Thanks, but those machines are hundreds if not thousands of $$$.For and old retired Geezer on a fixed income that almost reaching for the moon! lol. Anyway tried flashing the ecm this morning with the original mapping data as we talked about last night using the MPPS v13 but getting the same error messages due to not "following routine" means first extract/read existing files and then flash new files! The MPPS program attempts to flash but stops after a few seconds saying "can't communicate with ECM" makes sense because the original programming is non existing. Tried with two differents ECM's same results, they both initially had good response and original map software loaded on them! Kind of at the end of my rope here buddy! Do you or anybody you know have the gadgets and ability to do this for me? Originally I had wanted to simply install a blank in the EGR system whick I did and the flash the ECM with EGR delete mapping. Now, weeks later I'm up the creek without a paddle or my beloved Liberty CRD!

2006 town and country column has been changed and it does not start with the new key. When I try to program a new ignition key by using its pin number on maxisys elite tool, it says "invalid pin" but I am sure it should be valid. When I look at error codes I see "vin mismatch" error. I do not know vin can be changed somehow or it can be different on skim module. That procedure works on this issue?

I dont know if you already figured this out but I think you need either to reprogram the key or edit the VIN to make em match ECU-Immo. If you already fixed it, please share your experience.

@@mameryjazz Yes I fixed it by buying a brand new immobilizer module. The previous one was used so it has a different vin number. That is why it keep saying "vin mismatch". After installation new immobilizer module, pin number worked without any problem and I programmed a brand new key. Probably new key is required too. As far as I know you can not program a key is already programmed for another immobilizer module. As a result, a new immobilizer module from chyrsler dealer, a new oem key from amazon(cheap) and 15-20 mins installation and programming. That is it.

I was able to edit the Vin to match my bcm but it was not enough to keep it running. So i am now trying to flash the original pcm. Car has an oxygen sensor heater code but replacement did not fix it.

[@QwertyQwerty-jq3cu]

@@VigilanceTech I've ran into this before on an Intrepid. Supposedly, once a computer is put into a car, it looks for the SKIM unit. If there is one, it registers it. If not, it registers it. After the first try, it cant be changed. There are ways around this supposedly. If you know what portion of the program effects this, you can edit this and use either computer. One option is to reflash the PCM back to factory specs "as new" by downloading the file from Tech Authority. That's takes a little time and a short term access for $30 to download to laptop. Not sure of the exact process. The other option is to get the key, ignition cylinder and SKIM module from the car the computer cam from and install it. That's supposed to work also. Can't confirm that.
