The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) manages several emission control systems, primarily including the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) system, the Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) system, and the catalytic converter operation. It monitors and adjusts parameters to optimize fuel combustion, reduce harmful emissions, and ensure compliance with environmental regulations. Additionally, the PCM may control the oxygen sensors and the air-fuel ratio to further minimize pollutants emitted from the vehicle.
why do cars and trucks have emission control systems. To help keep the air we breath clean now and for future generations.
During a drive cycle, the PCM (Powertrain Control Module) monitors various sensors to ensure the vehicle's emission-related components are functioning correctly. It performs checks such as monitoring oxygen sensors, catalytic converter efficiency, EGR valve operation, and EVAP system integrity. The PCM uses this data to run tests and determine if the vehicle is meeting emission standards.

Powertrain Control Module ( PCM )
That's why it's called spontaneous emission you cannot control it. But there is a kind of emission which is called stimulated emission emission. People use stimulated emission in lasers and it can be controlled.
The pcm refers to the "power control module".
PCM ( Powertrain Control Module )
The PCM does control all engine functions.
A control system is a device that commands, regulates, directs, or manages the behavior of other systems or devices. Cruise control. emission control, traction control, vehicle stability control, brake system, engine cooling, exhaust system, fuel system, steering and suspension, and the transmission are control systems in a vehicle.
The 2004 Dodge Intrepid PCM power control module can be found on the firewall in the engine compartment. The PCM power control module will be on the passenger side of the firewall.
