Understanding how this component operates and how to replace it will help you keep your vehicle running smoothly. This guide walks you through the steps to identify, remove, and reinstall the module, ensuring you know what to expect and how to avoid common pitfalls.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"info-section\">\n<h2>What the PCM Does in a 2001 Plymouth Neon<\/h2>\n<p>The Powertrain Control Module in the 2001 Plymouth Neon orchestrates engine and transmission functions, calibrating fuel injection, ignition timing, and shift logic. It processes sensor data to optimize performance and emissions. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fs1inc.com\/chrysler-dodge-plymouth\/plymouth-pcm-ecm-ecu-engine-computer\/neon-engine-computers.html\">2001 Plymouth Neon Powertrain Control Module<\/a> Replacement of this module is essential when diagnostics show persistent misfires or loss of communication, as it directly influences drivability and engine health.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"info-section\">\n<h2>Where the PCM Is Located and What Replacement Involves<\/h2>\n<p>The module is located adjacent to the air cleaner assembly inside the engine bay. Removal follows the factory procedure, which typically requires a 0.5\u2011hour labor window. The process involves disconnecting electrical connectors, unscrewing mounting bolts, and carefully extracting the unit. After removal, the new module is installed in the same orientation and secured with the original bolts, completing the 0.5\u2011hour replacement slot.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"margin:22px auto;text-align:center;max-width:720px\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto;border:1px solid #e2e6ec;border-radius:8px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fs1inc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/2001-plymouth-neon-pcm-location-diagram.webp\" alt=\"2001 Plymouth Neon PCM location diagram\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><figcaption style=\"font-size:13px;color:#667085;margin-top:8px\">PCM mounting location on the 2001 Plymouth Neon.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div style=\"background:#f7f9fc;border:1px solid #e2e8f2;border-radius:10px;padding:18px 24px;margin:18px 0\">\n<h3 style='margin-top:0'>How to Reach the PCM on the 2001 Plymouth Neon<\/h3>\n<ol style=\"margin:14px 0 6px 0;padding-left:26px\">\n<li style=\"margin:10px 0;line-height:1.65\"><b>Disconnect<\/b> the negative battery cable ().<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:10px 0;line-height:1.65\"><b>Remove<\/b> the air cleaner box.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:10px 0;line-height:1.65\"><b>Remove<\/b> the gray and black connector from the PCM (Powertrain Control Module (PCM)).<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:10px 0;line-height:1.65\"><b>Remove<\/b> the harness clip bracket from PCM bracket ().<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:10px 0;line-height:1.65\"><b>Remove<\/b> the nut from the upper bracket mount.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:10px 0;line-height:1.65\"><b>Raise<\/b> vehicle and support on hoist.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:10px 0;line-height:1.65\"><b>Remove<\/b> 2 lower bracket bolts ().<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:10px 0;line-height:1.65\"><b>Remove<\/b> 4 screws from bracket and remove bracket from PCM (8dae80).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style='margin:10px 0 0 0'><em>Work with the ignition off, and treat the module as static-sensitive: avoid touching the connector pins at any point.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<table style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;margin:18px 0;font-size:15px\">\n<tr>\n<th style=\"border:1px solid #d6dbe3;background:#f2f5f9;padding:9px 12px;text-align:left\">Operation<\/th>\n<th style=\"border:1px solid #d6dbe3;background:#f2f5f9;padding:9px 12px;text-align:left\">Configuration<\/th>\n<th style=\"border:1px solid #d6dbe3;background:#f2f5f9;padding:9px 12px;text-align:left\">Book Time<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #d6dbe3;padding:9px 12px\">Engine Control Module Relearn<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #d6dbe3;padding:9px 12px\">All configurations<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #d6dbe3;padding:9px 12px\">0.5 hr<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #d6dbe3;padding:9px 12px\">Engine Control Module R&amp;R<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #d6dbe3;padding:9px 12px\">All configurations<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #d6dbe3;padding:9px 12px\">0.5 hr<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #d6dbe3;padding:9px 12px\">Powertrain Control Module R&amp;R<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #d6dbe3;padding:9px 12px\">All configurations<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #d6dbe3;padding:9px 12px\">0.5 hr<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #d6dbe3;padding:9px 12px\">Powertrain Control Module Relearn<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #d6dbe3;padding:9px 12px\">All configurations<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #d6dbe3;padding:9px 12px\">0.5 hr<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"info-section\">\n<h2>Programming Requirements After Replacement<\/h2>\n<p>After installing the new PCM, the factory procedure mandates a relearn sequence to calibrate the module with the vehicle\u2019s current sensors and settings.
