 Subject: 2001 RT w/2000 PCM
IP: Logged
Message:
Has anyone done this (2000 Mopar Performance PCM in a 2001 RT)? I am somewhat hesitant about spending $500-650 for a flash of my factory PCM...Would the actual build date on the vehicle affect weather the 2k PCM would work? Any help would be appreciated.

It won't work, there are too many different changes to the codes between the two years. You'll be thrown MIL's all day long. I had the same idea, but I talked to Bernd and he said no go....

Brad Bedell (2001 R/T) grafted a 2000 Mopar PCM to his 2001...but it's a wiring nightmare and not a simple "plug and play" installation.

I have heard over on dodgetrucks.org that a number of guys are doing this successfully on 2001 Rams. 2000 PCM's seem to work on 2001 trucks that have a 2000 build date.

B1, I saw that post also...I'm not sure of the build date though. I used the VIN decoder but all I could get is a model year. Anyone know how to verify the build date?

Look inside the door jab, I think the build date is printed there. Mines says September 99 and it is a 2000 model R/T. I've heard some Durango owners also have tried Dakota PCM and made them work. I think it's a good way to lose $350 trying. At least you could sell it on e-bay for $150, but still $200 hurts.
