Im a professional mechanic. without seeing it, data scoping or logging it, and getting a feel for more info, history, etc...I DONT KNOW. if the lets just say "dee brain" isnt going online - no obd comm at all, after checking ALL fuses & fusable links, I would just send it to that company I listed above. If its not the brains power circuit, etc, whatever else, they will send it back for postage only. Im calling it dee brain because in my vocab, the ecm & pcm are the same dam thing. I DO NOT specialize in dodge., I do mostly vehicle electrical. For any further elecrical support, sorry..Im a busy guy , I book apointments or charge by the hour for tech support.. so far that company has fixed two dodge brains for me very cheap. excellent work. trucks have been running great. Most other brain places wanted 3-10x as much dough.

the PCM did die. It was the pcms internal power circuit. this company rebuilt it for $137, took forever to find them! SIA Electronics has many other repairs available. (800)737-0915 SIA Electronics 730 N. Minnie St. PO Box 392 Tilden, IL 62292

Died while driving. Cranks, No start, No communication with any scanner. (tried 3 ) No gauges, No tach, No low beams as of a couple weeks ago.. Checked for power at PCM, - Pcm had 12 volts at the Two main PCM feed circuits. We unplugged the fan clutch, disconnected the batteries, touched + & - together for ten minutes with the key on. Reconnected – no changes. Checked every single fuse. Added engine grounds, cleaned all positive terminals. REMOVED, disassembled entire TIPM. Cleaned all TIPM contacts internally. TIPM had no visible corrosion, No visible cracked solders, no visible cracked pathways. had a lot of dust, some oxidation on the main power wires, some oxidation on the terminals and where the boards make contact. No changes. Still no com-no start. - no low beams. I have fixed several older cars computers at board level, this ain't my first rodeo but it was my first dodge Gen 3 TIPM ! Checked grounds, clean. No changes. I may not have internet where im about to go work on it ,If someone knows and they can text me.. .210 six one four - one four for fore.
