Let a shop do it for you for the serial number of the vehicle has to be burned into the replacement computer for you
The
ecm is buried under the passenger side windshield cowling. The bcm sits
on top of the glove box. Your 4cyl engine uses a timing chain that may
have suffered from lack of lubrication due to poor oiling controls.
Although you're describing a symptom, ecm's rarely fail ($$$), as your
description may have everything to do with the bcm and the factory
security system; starting, running then stopping. Have you reviewed your
owner's manual for resetting the security system?
Jumping on ecm replacement won't be as easy as you may think as there's a
factory security feature that forces all the system computers to
communicate with the body control module (computer) before allowing the
new kid to work. There's a relearn routine that's part of replacement
procedures and unless your ecm find gives you this information, you'll
be in more trouble than you can imagine.
