What is a PCM

1 Answer

42,870

A PCM is a Powertrain Control Module, or "engine computer" it is often called. They came about in the 1980's in one form or another. They are currently very complex, controlling every function of a vehicle. Your Jeep ignition switch must not be cutting off electricity to the ignition if it won't shut off.
