HELP !!!
OK, if I don't push this ZJ over a cliff, I may throw myself under a train!!!!
Replaced Alternator because battery was running down and two shops tested system and both agreed ......
BATTERY = GOOD
ALTERNATOR = LOW OUTPUT
Sooooooooooo .... I installed a new alternator and DAMN .... still have starting problem.
It is time for a PCM !!!!!
Any recommendations as to where to buy ?????
Anyone ever deal with "autocomputerexchange.net "?
They say they can sell me one programmed to my VIN and they need the VIN and also the P/N off the PCM for $240.
Well I have all the info but am not sure where to go?
( I have been told in the past to 'go to hell' .... but did not listen to THAT advice )
FUNNY THING - while jumping it to get it running the heat is now hotter!

Easy, come to frederick & i will help you. I am the RTV master.
