On vehicles with an automatic transmission, software in the powertrain control module (PCM) can cause the drive wheels to lock briefly when the transmission is shifted to neutral and back to drive at speeds over 40 MPH. If the drive wheels lock, loss of vehicle control could occur, increasing the risk of a crash. Dealers will reprogram the PCM free of charge.

    That is 100% correct, ASE class Day 1, class 101. first read the TSB< that is read them and avoid , gross and dangerous condtions like above. its shamefull it even exists. The TCM should never allow it. (by hard logic) if you take a A/T class they teach you how to lock the tranny up with solenoid valves in the wrong state. we did it manually on a bench set up. see, locked. up. avoid that or die.

Why?
first tell what you are doing.
replacing a bad PCM
hacking it?
what?
the PCM can only be programmed at the dealer or independents set up to do so (licensed)

The FSM is clear on that, read it.

My 2012 Chrysler 200 2.4 jerks when decelerating and won't top 60mph/3000rpm but sometimes restarting the car fixes the problem. What's up with it? pcm? o2 sensor?

Run a fault code test, do not just throw parts at it, and is it the PCM? really doubt that, fail rate of PCM's is about 1.5%

How to reprogram pcm concorde 2000 by my self

The PCM is VIN specific so unless you have a Chrysler Star Scan tool and the VIN codes, there is no way for you to do this. Take it to a dealer.

Code p0601 on 2001 grand caravan

A doozy! And common to Chrysler Dodge products. The code means the computer detected an internal fault in the PCM. There have been many reported failures of the Program Control Module in Chrysler products.
However, if you took off the connector to the PCM while battery was connected, you may have set the code yourself.
It's pretty much a dealer fix: In most cases, the fix is to replace and reprogram the PCM. In a few instances, the dealer may be able to reflash the PCM and get it working again, but usually it needs replacing and reprogramming. It's probably not, but ask if it's still under emissions warranty.
If you use an independent shop to replace the PCM, make sure they can also program it. Good luck.

Code P0601 car idle and run ruff , it is 2000 sebring JXI with146,000 miles on it

Hi, basically that means that there is an interal fault in the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). There have been many reported PCM failures on Chrysler/Dodge products although it is possible for this to happen on any vehicle. In Dodge/Chrysler products, a P0601 trouble code means that a serial communication failed inside the computer at least 6 times. In most cases means the PCM has gone bad. This is possibly due to a short-circuit inside the PCM. Or, if you disconnect the wires/connector from the PCM while the battery is still connected, that may also cause this code. The most common fix is to replace and reprogram the PCM. In a few cases the dealer may be able to reflash the PCM and get it working. But more than likely the PCM will need to be replaced and reprogrammed (we recommend you take it to a dealership for this). The good news is it *may* be covered under your emmissions warranty. So even if you're out of bumper-to-bumper warranty or powertrain warranty, check your warranty guide or dealer to see if this is covered.

2002 Dodge Grand Caravan I just put a master computer on. Is there a way that I can reset it? The engine runs fine so I know it works but it wont shift properly.

Hope you put a PCM in. TCM is in side the PCM. The TCM sometimes needs a brake in period. 200 miles. If not call the dealer to have then flash the PCM with the updates. Around $80 at the dealer. Tell them you want to FLASH to PCM for bump shifting. Any Chrysler, Jeep or Dodge dealer can do this in 1 hour. Thers a Chrysler TSB #2101807 Dated 10-27-07 about Transmission Reprogramming. If the dealer put the PCM take it back tell them about the TSB
