2003 Chrysler 300 4dr Sedan

250-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD

137000 mi

US $200
From prior ECM flash update and improper reseating of the main harness connector by dealer, main harness plug to ECM was damaged w/ intermittent electrical connections. This caused various repeated engine sensor & ECM errors. The vehicle often broke down and/or would not start, 4 repairs by 4 different shops replaced the same "sensors" multiple times. Realizing this could not be, I worked on the car & diagnosed the true cause of the problem back to the partially seated ECM main harness connection. After carefully packing silver conductive electrical grease into each of the damaged pins in the harness connection, the issues were then resolved.
