Show original supplier description
The Honda 37820-PLM-A73 is a refurbished Engine Control Module (ECM), also known as an Engine Control Unit (ECU) or Power Control Module (PCM), specifically designed as a direct replacement for the 2004 and 2005 Honda Civic models equipped with the 1.7L engine and automatic transmission. This unit is compatible with Federal emissions standards. While this is a genuine Honda part, it is noted that it "Likely needs to be Programmed by a Dealer." Some vendors offer a programming service where your original ECU's data is transferred to the replacement, potentially avoiding dealer fees and allowing for a plug-and-play installation with your existing keys and VIN. The entire process for such services typically takes 5 to 7 business days. This ECM is covered by a 1-year limited warranty from the manufacturer. Additionally, some sellers include a $100 refundable core deposit in the price, and may offer a reduced restocking fee for returns if the part was used for diagnostic purposes but not found to be the cause of the issue. Common symptoms of a failing ECU include rough idle, cylinder misfires, poor acceleration, failure to be found via OBD, non-functioning A/C, difficulty starting, fault codes that won't clear, and transmission shifting problems. It is important to ensure this part number matches your original for compatibility.
