  • Fried PCM?!?!?!?!

    F*ck me...I had 18% battery power left in the computer...I went to write...just as it got to step 5 the computer went into hibernation mode...I didnt disconnect anything...rebooted it back up...step 5 said fail

    The car wont start now...but it turns over...is my pcm fried or can it be recovered somehow???

    it is a 96 car with a 97 pcm

      it fails the gathering info stage if I just select the write calibration only ...

      I thought there may be a way to recover it through write entire or something...please tell me its not toast...

        does anyone know how the write entire works? would that recover my pcm? I dont know if going into hibrination in the middle of a write calibration only would fry it?....

          when you click write calibration it basically only writes the code you changed, entire writes the entire pcm. It wouldn't hurt any to try it. Most people just dont use it because it takes much longer

            I fixed it...trick was to unhook the pcm for about 5-10 mins....then plug it back in...then hook up the obd 2 stuff again and write...got lucky
