PCM Failure HELP

HBINC1 · 08-25-2008, 08:11 AM

Hi guys so a friend(at his shop) diagnosed my truck for me after the Check Engine Light Came on and its telling him that the Powertrain Control Module is bad! what does this mean ??? the truck has 70k miles on it and this should be covered under factory warranty since its a 06 my only concern is the edge should i take it off before i take it to the dealer i would appreciate any input! and if the dealer does not cover it what does this kind of part run

I agree
Should be warranty
Not to many of these go bad
They have lots of inputs and outputs that can make them appear bad
Good Luck

Remove the Edge before you take it in, I think this would be a smart idea.
