Chrysler has a penchant
for making the LRU as big as possible .. like making the voltage
regulator
for the alternator part of the main computer. a $20 part on most
vehicles
becomes a $400 part and a weeks wait for replacement.


Nothing stopping you from hanging a $20 voltage regulator and
bypassing the one in the main computer...


True .. but you have to replae the alternator to get there


You most certainly do not. The alternator doesn't care how [its]
field is controlled.

and it leaves the
fault lights on on the dash.


Depends on model year, and then, easily worked around with a
substitute resistance.

Not a problem for me .. I wouldn't even
consider a Chrysler product for my own use.


More for me then...
