Hello all, just found out that my vipers computer got water demage from a car wash and its toast. My mechanic guy cant even get the codes out... The car is not running well, guages acting up, and altenator is putting out too much voltage. Can someone please help me is to how to fix this? I have an accsess to a used pcm, but im pretty sure its just not plug and play? Does it need to have imobilazer codes to be programmed? By whom and how? What else does it need?
Thank you all

05 doesn't have immobilizer, but it does have theft alarm. you are best off with a new/remanufactured PCM.

Thats a pretty tough place to get water unless you have an 08 hood. Or, they were pressure washing the engine bay.

Dan is a good guy. I ordered one through John B for around 3 bones. They aren't as expensive as you would think. Originally Posted by 1994viper

If you want to ask others about my reliability, you may want to post a separate thread that people will notice.
Nothing to hide here
And I just noticed that you are in Toronto...Last edited by Viper Specialty; 10-28-2014 at 11:17 PM.

thanks guys. Dan im sure we will cross path sometime soon
and yes im in Toronto.
As for my computer problem, my tech is sending my pcm to rebuilders. This way hopefully it will be plug and play after rebuild.
Ill keep you guys postedLast edited by 1994viper; 10-29-2014 at 11:08 AM.
