My local dealership tells me that Chrysler no longer makes TIPM's for a 2008 convertible and they have none in stock. They have directed me to the bone yard to find one and bring it back to them for programming. Aftermarket pieces are available, so I'm looking for recommendations as some claim that no programming is necessary. Thanks in advance ....

As well as a Dorman unit, you can go to the junkyard and get one from any 2006-2010 PT, turbo or not, and it will work. Get one from a convertible for a convertible and hard top for hard top. If you cannot find the exact one, you can use either in your car, but if you use a hard top tipm in a convertible, everything will work fine except the top. It will not work as it is missing a few components on the board. I have a friend who has verified this for me. I don't believe he swapped a convertible tipm in a hard top, but in theory it will work fine, it just has circuitry for a convertible top which would not get used.
No programming is necessary. Plug it in and go. Technically there would be a vin mismatch which only the dealer could see, but it will never cause a check engine light or have any adverse affects on the car. Around here, the junkyards consider them "fuse boxes" and are very inexpensive. |
