I have had starting issues ever since last with this car It starts, then cuts out - I replaced the Fuel Pump, ECM, CPS, Throttle Position Sensor, Mass Airflow Position Sensor, and the car still does not run. It starts, but then stops almost immediately - It will then not start back up!

The OBD2 codes lead to the BCM being the culprit. I am not too sure by reading about this that this could cause it from starting and/or keeping it running! I truly thought the ECM bought and programmed would repair this, but obviously I was wrong!

Any ideas with this electrical headache I have with this Chrysler?

PLEASE ANYTHING WOULD HELP - Except taking this to the dealer where they told me the BCM would cost $700 LOL WHat a joke when I can get one used for $50.

Thanks a bunch,
John

John:
If the codes are leading you to the BCM, that is where I would focus. Chances are there is a problem with it. Get one and try it.

Keep in mind, anything else I say will be a guess because the computer is identifying the problem as the BCM. However, for curiosity sake, when it doesn't start, do you loose spark or fuel?
