QuestionQUESTION: My '03 concorde lxi stalls quite often and is hard to start
after the stall. it does start after a minute to several
minutes. I had to have the computer replaced and we have
had trouble ever since. The car has 140000 miles and before
replacing the computer, run the diagnostics and even had it
at the dealer. the dealer cleaned the throttle body and
programmed the USED computer. please help.... thanks in
advance

QUESTION: sorry if this sounds rude but after your answer I have no
choice but to ask you this.... are you here to help or
advertise? After replacing the PCM, we took it to the
dealer and they told me the same thing....AFTER the fact of
me buying it. This did fix the original problem then not
long after, we started getting the stalling problem.
anyway, I appreciate you advertisement but, I believe I
will ask someone with better motives.
Answerwhat other motives do I have?? i don't get paid to do this all of the other 26,000 questions I have answered from this site I did not get a dime from it. I offer my service out there to any one local that would like to use my physical skills.
U can not under reprogram a used pcm once the vin is programed into it there is no changing it unless u replace a ROM chip inside that is dont by the maker of the PCM or by some places that do this type of work.
and here is the second thing if the issue was not there before hand and u replace something like a computer and now it is there dont U think just using common scene that what u did might be the root cause of your now currant issue? U fix one and make a new one.
