Want this question answered?
It can.
What happens depends greatly on which module fails. If the engine control module (computer) fails it may cause the engine to run poorly or not at all. If the ignition module fails the engine won't start.
YOUR ENGINE CONTROL MODULE CAN HAVE SOME OF THE PARAMETERS RE-PROGRAMED/ADJUSTED. I would advise going to the dealership, their factory scan tool is more in-depth in doing this than a generic scan tool. But if you want to radically reprogram your engine control module you will have to go to performance center, if your car has an automatic transmission engine control module and transmission control module talk to each other and depending upon the intelligence of the components they might watch each others peraminators,if they are out of these it could cause the check engine or check transmission light to be turned on,
yes a power train control module failure can cause transmission problems.
What does the car sound like when you attempt to restart it? If the engine turns over normal, your injectors could be flooding out. If not, it has to be your crank sensor or the ignition control module.
An IPDM is an Intelligent Power Distribution Module. It contains the majority of your fuses and relays. It is wired through the CAN (Controller Area Network)system to the ECM (Engine Control Module) and BCM (Body Control Module). If it fails it will cause multiple codes that seem to not have any correlation with each other.
yes.tcc will not work corect or cruise control
Could be a broken timing belt or a bad Engine Control Module.
trottle control module
Absolutely.
If Its the 4 Cylinder 2.5 engine I know what it is...on the 2.5 there is a module located beneath the distributor cap...I believe it is call an ignition control module... theses modules over time will slowly wear out and when the engine is being run hot ( interstate driving for example) it will affect your spark timing which in turn will cause lack of power and the occasional backfire.
The engine control module can affect cylinders. But if its only a 4 cylinder, cancelling out just one out of 4 isn't likely to be a computer. Its not the most likely cause, but it is definetely possible.
