The ECU for an automatic can be used in a manual transmission. However, it will not work vice-versa with the ECU from a manual transmission in an automatic.

Will a 93 Chevy silverado manual transmission work in a 95 gmc sierra auto chassis?

Yes, but the ECM of the 95 would have to be reflashed to remove the interface with the (electronically controlled) automatic transmission.


Does the 95 escort Lx transmission have a computer?

Depends if you have a manual or automatic. Manual transmission, no, there is no transmission computer. For an automatic transmission, the engine computer and transmission computer are one unit typically called an ECM, Engine control module. There are many different names for and ECM. Ford started using computer controlled transmissions in the early 90's and late 80's.


Is the ecm the same for a manual and automatic?

The Engine Control Module (ECM) is not necessarily the same for manual and automatic transmissions, as each type may require different programming and features to manage their respective functions. Automatic transmissions often need additional control for shifting and torque converter operations, which a manual transmission ECM does not require. However, some vehicles may share the same ECM across both transmission types with different calibrations. It's essential to consult the vehicle's specifications for confirmation.


Where is the ECM located on the 2000 Mitsubishi Eclipse?

The Engine Control Module (manual transmission), also known as PCM Powertrain COntrol Module (automatic transmission), is located interior under the glove box.


Can a 2006 Ford F-150 5.4l engine be put in a 2005 ford expedition with 5.4?

Yes. They're interchangeable. If the F150 has a manual transmission, the ECM will need to be reflashed for the automatic transmission on the Expedition.


Is 1998 forester auto transmission and manual transmission share the same ECM?

Short answer is "no." The automatic transmission is controlled by the ECM. It learns your driving habits and adjusts shift points accordingly. No need for such functioning on the manual transmission model. Often manufacturers make subtle changes to models while they are in production, such as using a component from a different supplier, and the ECM may be changed to accommodate. The only way to find the correct replacement is to match up the code numbers on the unit.


Will engine fron 2003 2.0sx neon fit into 2000 neon 2.0?

no. the crank toner wheel is different and the 2000 ecm will not read the crank sensor. You may be able to use the 2003 harness and ecm if your car has a manual transmission. If its an automatic the harness and ecm will not work unless you also use a 2003 tranny (the mounts and axles may be different as well). The transmissions changed from a 3 speed to a 4 speed in 2003. The ecm in an automatic will not control the 3 speed.


What transmissions are interchangeable with a 1997 gmc 4l60e?

If you just want a drop in swap, any 4L60E - that is it. You can upgrade to a 4L80E or 6L80E, but the latter will require new driveshafts, and they'll both require repinning the ECM connections and reflashing the ECM. Same deal if you want to go to a manual transmission (NV3500 or NV4500) or non-electronic automatic transmission (4L60 or 700R4)... the ECM will need to be reflashed.


What do i have to do to swap a manual transmission to a automatic on a 1993 Chevy 1500 truck?

Since the manual is five speeds and the auto is four, you may have to find a corresponding driveshaft, as the manual transmission has a longer body. Also, unless you're swapping in an older auto transmission, like a 700R4 or a 4L60, 1993 was the gear General Motors went to the electronic 4L60E transmission, which will require the engine ECM to be reflashed and the parameters added to interface with the transmission.


Would a 4.3 V6 out of a 94 Astro van fit in a 93 GMC Sonoma?

Yes. If it's coming out of a vehicle with an automatic transmission and going into one with a manual (or vice versa), then the ECM will need to be reflashed.


Is it possible to do an automatic to manual transmission conversion on your 88 Grand Prix 2 8 liter?

it is possible but you will need to change more that just the transmission. You will need to get the ecm out of the other car or any gm that has a manual transmission and a 2.8. and change that out. early 90's cavalier would be the easiest since they made so many of them. you will also of course need the shifter and shifter linkage for a manual
