Could you please supply the code letter and numbers you got off the diagnostics scan ?? is the management light flickering or flashing on and off .. if it is flickering sounds like you have bad wiring connections to the PCM (computer) let me know

I really need the diagnostic codes to help further !! if the ECU (PCM) is supplying codes it may not be bad/faulty ... it could be a loose/damaged wire or connector ..
