    My Car Is [Still] Broken. Please Help!

    Well this really has been quite a fiasco. After finally getting my pcm back it was STILL broken. I called sia and they pretty much told me that they had broken my computer beyond repair and refunded my money. So here I am, out of time and money with a broken computer installed into my broken...

    My Car Is [Still] Broken. Please Help!

    I had an odd thought. The car has no computer in it right now, what if I reconnected the battery? would the engine start? would the windows roll down? could I move the seats? Secondary: I was thinking, could the extra miles have come from them running a simulation when testing the pcm? I...

    Okay, I un-plugged the wires and re-plugged them. no change. attempted a start, and all it would do is crank. almost like no fuel was getting to it? attempted to trace sound...no luck. when I went to engine bay it sounded like it was in cabin. in cabin it sounded like it was in engine bay.

    Checked voltage....12.3...with car on "run" and lights on...11.7 When in "run" cooling fan comes on (still), but just noticed driver side of the car is making like a zapping/ticking sound, almost like when electricity sparks.

    Went out to start, and now the PCM is really screwed. I turned it to accessory mode and the cooling fan turned on and didn't go off. fuel system repeatedly pressurized. Security light flashing. Dash was displaying every warning light "check traction control" "etc failsafe mode" "gear selector...

    ABS as in anti-lock brakes? The mileage only changed after I had the computer fixed, so even if mileage isn't stored in the pcm, something from the pcm caused it to change

    Well I finally got my pcm back and installed it. When I turned the key to acc position the car alarm went off once (one horn honk and one light flash), so I turned it to off and then back to acc, but nothing happened, and I started it. it cranked, started, and immediately died. (did this twice)...
