im new to this ficm stuff so my 03 should have a 7 pin not a 4 does that make a difference with the half shell? If it does not would you know the part number?

You can resolder it, it worked for mine.

Hey Chris, I'll be fixing them tonight bud. I'm sorry I didn't get back to you, my phone is on the fritz right now. Just keeps shutting off on me randomly.

Going to Hannaford after work for some steaks and beers and heading over to my buddies place right after to start working on them. :blitzed:

If you need one RIGHT AWAY, and can get to Herkimer, I'm 90% sure I'll have at least one good one in that batch that is already at proper voltages that you can borrow until I can fix some others... I'll know more in a couple hours. That way I can do my usual repair verification.

Sounds good mine is down and out and I'm loosing work not having it

Mdub707 · Aug 5, 2013

Oh in that case if you really need one and can get to Herkimer I'll give you the one off of my truck. It will buy us a couple days for me to get one of the repaired one's to you. Is that your only ride? Can you bring your FICM down with you? I'll just swap you a good working one right now, fix yours for you, and then we can swap back towards the end of the week? My apologies for not being able to get it done sooner man. I have 4 or 5 I need to do tonight, I will just go ahead and test them all right away, as soon as I know if I have a good one or not, I'll call you.

How long am I looking at to get a known good one that I don't have to barrow?

Mdub707 · Aug 5, 2013

They will all be fixed before the end of the night, but I usually like to put them on my truck and do a few cold starts with them to ensure they're good... so technically speaking it could still be ready tonight, I just prefer to do some cold start testing. That's up to you. FWIW, I haven't had one mess up on the cold starts after repair, I'm kind of paranoid about that stuff though. Being that your local it would be a lot easier if there was a problem.
