Yes the ecm and the engine computer are the same thing.
ECM stands for engine control module / COMPUTER
ECM stands for "Engine Control Module" and is the generic term for the computer that controls engine functions. On some models, this same computer also controls the transmission, and is referred to as the "PCM" or "Powertrain Control Module".
ECM means "Engine computer module"
Yes the ecm( engine control module)/ pcm( powertrain control module) are the same thing. Different manufacturers use different acronyms, ECU (engine control unit) is another often used.
the ecm is the vechicles computer and is located under the hood.
Engine Control Module. The computer that controls the engine.
If the computer, aka Engine Control Module (ECM) had a major melt down the engine would not start or run. Different functions of the ECM could fail and the engine may continue to run and the check engine light would illuminate. It is seldom the ECM is at fault.
If they are the same year/engine/transmission it should be the same ECM.
It is the engine control module (computer)
It's used in reference to the Electronic Control Module (ECM), which is a computer.
I once had the same problem in my 89 Sunbird turbo. The computer "ECM" went bad and the speedo stopped working. I would see what ECM codes you have causing the check engine light and go from there.
yes the ecm and the ecu is the same thing. ecu stands for electronic control module and ecu stands for electronic control unit. they are both the same thing just ecm in canada and ecu in america.
