Dodge RAM ECU Clone Service

What this service is

A Dodge or RAM ECU clone gets you back on the road without a trip to the dealer’s StarScan or wiTECH bay. We read the complete memory from your failed PCM — flash plus secured EEPROM containing the SKIM/SKREEM immobilizer secret, VIN, mileage, and learned values — clone it onto a matched donor, and ship it back ready to start.

Clone-only service — you supply both ECUs. This service requires two units: your failed original ECU and a matching donor ECU (same manufacturer part number and hardware revision), both supplied by you. We clone your original’s data onto your donor and ship it back. Not sure which donor matches? Email us a photo of your failed ECU label first and we confirm compatible part numbers before you buy a donor.

How to source a compatible donor

The donor does not need to come from a car with the same VIN or mileage — after cloning it carries your original data. What it does need to match exactly:

• Same manufacturer part number on the label
• Same hardware revision suffix (AA / AB / AC, or PCB rev number where printed)
• Same Bosch / Continental / Delphi / Denso hardware code where applicable

Good donor sources: eBay Motors, Car-Part.com, local salvage yards with parts-lookup, and make-specific forums / Facebook groups. Send us the label photo before you buy and we’ll pre-clear it.

Dodge / RAM ECU platforms we support

• Continental SIM4SE / SIM2.0 / SIM2.1 — mid-2000s Dodge gas V6/V8 (Magnum, Durango, Charger early)

• Delphi MT22.1 — RAM 1500 3.0 EcoDiesel (V6)
• Bosch EDC17CP16 — RAM 2500/3500 6.7 Cummins diesel (2013+)
• NGC4 / NGC5 — older 2000s Dodge platforms (Ram, Durango, Dakota)

Common part-number prefixes

Dodge/RAM PCMs carry a P05xxxxxx, P56xxxxxx, P6xxxxxxx, or 68xxxxxxAX Mopar part number. We match by that number plus the hardware revision suffix (AB, AC, AD, etc.). The Bosch hardware code (0 281 0xx xxx for diesels, 0 261 S0x xxx for gas) gives us a secondary match.

How the clone works

1. Email us the label first (recommended). Send a photo of your failed ECU’s part-number label and we confirm the exact donor part numbers that will work — before you spend money on a donor.
2. You source a matching donor. Buy a compatible used ECU yourself through eBay Motors, Car-Part.com, or a salvage yard with parts-lookup. Must match manufacturer part number and hardware revision.
3. Mail us BOTH units together — your failed original ECU AND the matching donor you sourced, shipped in the same box with your order number. Prepaid return label available on request.
4. We bench-read your original — full flash plus EEPROM (immobilizer secret, VIN, mileage, learned values) captured intact. Most “dead” units can still be read on the bench.
5. We clone onto your donor — your donor is blanked, then your original’s flash and EEPROM are written one-for-one.
6. Bench verification — every clone is simulated before it ships. Immobilizer bytes, VIN string, and odometer confirmed to match.
7. We ship your cloned donor back — 24-hour turnaround from when both units arrive. Plug in, turn the key, drive.

What’s preserved

• SKIM/SKREEM immobilizer data → existing keys and fobs work
• VIN → cluster, Uconnect, and body computer stay synced
• Mileage → no odometer rollback
• Adaptations, fuel trims, transmission learn, DEF quality data (diesel)

Pricing and warranty

$200 flat. Clone work only — donor ECU must be supplied by you. Nationwide mail-in. 24-hour bench turnaround. 12-month warranty on the clone. Send a photo of your PCM label with part number plus year and model — we confirm before you ship.
