Re: 97, 4.3 ECM Problems - Maybe?

All right here is the deal,
Why the ECM got screwed up is still a mystery, however it was intermittent, I believe it has to do with the fact of snowy/wet conditions, 4X4 is engaged, and the antilock brakes were applied all at the same time. My thoughts are a short in one or all of the components, or I had a faulty ECM that couldn’t handle the load????

I got a remanufactured ECM from NAPA for $125 and had the local Chevy dealer flash the program on to it for $45. (All of this language was unknown to me a week ago)

I wanted to thank all those how responded to me and gave their opinions.
Without this site I would still be on the side of the road or in jail for lighting my car on fire on the side of the road.

Thanks again.
Dan
