2001 Dodge Dakota 5.9L PCM
2001 Dakota, 5.9L Magnum V8 or 5.9L Cummins — title tells you which. Second-gen Dakota. 2.5 four, 3.9 V6, 5.2 and 5.9 Magnum V8s. These trucks share a lot of powertrain with the first Durango. Heat-soaked no-starts are common. On the 2001 Dodge Dakota the PCM usually sits engine bay, passenger or driver inner fender depending on year — close to the overflow bottle on later trucks.
On a gas 5.9 Magnum this box runs sequential MPI and a simple automatic. On a Cummins 5.9 it runs VP44 or common-rail fueling, boost, and on automatics the 47/48RE. Match the listing to gas or diesel and the injection type on the door sticker.
Usual complaints
- 3.7/4.7 that hunts at idle after a 10-minute hot soak
- gas 5.9 no-start when hot
- speedometer dropouts that make the automatic flare
- persistent cam or crank codes after the sensors were replaced
