computer controls what?

Asked by Guru95SVVH Jan 07, 2021 at 05:47 PM about the 1997 Dodge RAM Van 2500 Extended Cargo RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

What systems does the computer control besides the engine? Apart from the
engine, I really dislike comps. in vehicles.

1 Answer

The transmission is electronically controlled. You would have to go back to the early 70's to be completely computer free. GM had transistorized ignition in some cars back in the 60's.
