Are you sure that you were given the wrong PCM? How are you sure of that?

Did the PCM come with a warranty (will the company exchange it for the correct PCM)?

Dave,

Also, I'm curious as to why the PCM was replaced in the first place? What was the original problem, and how was it determined that the PCM was at fault?
