Hi everyone.
Due to some issues we plugged our dodge into the computer and it came up as issues with the PCM and TCM.
but I just cannot find if the TCM is a part of the PCM for our make and model. I know in some trucks they are seperate, in some trucks they’re one unit.
can anyone clarify?

2002 Dodge Dakota 4X4 3.9L V6 NV3500 5-speed manual trans
Hello all. My Dakota suffered a clutch failure a few weeks ago. Currently the drive shafts, T-case, transmission, and clutch have been removed to install a clutch kit. Inside the trans bell housing is a whole lot of caked oil. Not sure if it is from the trans input shaft seal or the engine block rear main seal. The truck has 205,000 miles on it and it does have a minor drip to the garage floor, but nothing of concern. I think it...

I have a 2000 Dakota Sport 3.9 V6 with manual transmission. I needed a new PCM. The Technician explained to me the one received was for an automatic; the PCM for the manual transmission is out of production. He stated there may be an option to have the original rebuilt. Is there anywhere this option can be done ..read more

I have a 2000 Dakota with 133k miles and for one day just failed. The battery and electrics are good, but the engine won't start, nothing happens. However, the headlights and dashboard blink a few times for a few seconds and then stop. This is strange as I already started it a week ago. I plan to check the relays and fuses to see what the problem is. If that doesn't help ..read more

So I recently purchased a 2001 Dakota Sport (private sale) and I found that no matter what I seem to do, the headlight switch does nothing. No DRLs, no low beams, no high beams. Also, when I go to look at the head lights, they seem to be on all the time - albeit very, very low - even with the switch and truck off. Does anyone know what could cause this ..read more
