Angry Please Help 97 T&C just dies

Me and my husband just purchased a 97 T&C 3.3 from a private owner, had it for 3 months and the trans went, so we have replaced it, well the van ran great for about a day, it just stalls i have it towed to auto zone, the egnition modular code comes up so weve changed that, the van still stalled, so we hired another mech that turns the egnition key and gets 3 codes, the egnition modular , a sensor, and the trans so we have changed the egnition modular and the sensor and we have found a leak in the trans pan, could someone please help because this van is still stalling and we dont know what to do

Get another mechanic who can properly read the codes and interpret them. I'm not sure what you're referring to by the "egnition modular". If you're referring to the powertrain control module (engine computer), that is not something you just switch out and expect to work. It must be programmed properly for your vehicle with the correct VIN and odometer reading.

What this guy said. If you're looking to replace the PCM, it can get a little pricey to replace, especially if you get it done at a dealership. I had to replace the PCM for my 2000 T&C and some of the prices were just ridiculous. The best I found is Auto ECM's 1- 800-690-4012 CAR ECM - TRUCK ECM - FORD ECM - CHRYSTLER ECM and they programmed it for my vehicle as well.

Again, I hope you don't need to replace the PCM, but if you do, check them out.
