I assume you haven't scanned for the OBDii trouble codes yet? One of your engine and or emission sensors is detecting a problem. An auto part store can do that for free.

That’s the problem I took it to AutoZone and then I take it to auto parts one I said I need a new transmission I did that and then they said something about my EUC Here’s the problem I’m still paying on this car and the place that I got it from they don’t want to assist me in to find out what the problem is with this car

We need the trouble codes to at least point you in the right direction. Jim

Looks are you talking to a female that does not know too much about cars only thing I know is what they told me is that I am probably a ECU Or could be something else I mean I don’t know how else to explain it but if you can’t help me that’s fine I’ll figure it out some other way

It's not very difficult. When you went to Autozone and they scanned your computer they were able to get a trouble code or trouble codes that help diagnose the problem. For example, a trouble code of P0301 is a misfire on cylinder number one in the engine. There are many different trouble codes for many different sensors and systems on your vehicle. Posting the code for us will help us know what system and sensors are involved. It will be a 4 digit number with a P in front of it. Like the P0301 example. They should have given you the (code) numbers when they did the scan for you. Being a female has nothing to do with this, BTW! You can do this! Jim
