Re: OBD does not communicate with safety inspection computer

Yes I would check out all things first before replacing a PCM... But if one part of the PCM goes bad then it would have to be replaced.. But most of the time a car will run even if the PCM is bad... Just depends on what part of the board went bad.. I know on the older Nissan 300 zx .. It will run really rough.. On a 2005 Dodge minivan everything ran fine Just the CEL came on.. That is one reason why I do not like to Jump start cars with my van.. Unless I am doing it. Only takes one opps to mess things up..
