[QUOTE="Dwwells, post: 438266, member: 18746"] So, I am Looking for information on installing this kit on my 93, I contacted Howell and was told this kit would not work on the 93 Wrangler. no specific reason other than it would not work. short reason why I'm thinking about installing this kit. about a year and a half ago, the jeep did the "No Check engine light" and would not start, I checked all the basic things, fuses, relays, connections etc. to no end could not find a culprit. I ordered a used ECM from "Dead Jeeps " while I was waiting on it to arrive, I replaced the 3 capacitors on my old ECM. After replacing the cap's I reinstalled the Old ECM but still nothing. Next step was I sent my Old ECM to SIA electronics to have them repair / test the unit. Still waiting on the unit from Dead Jeeps, i found another ECM for 1/2 price from "Ship ECM " which is located in Florida and since I live in Florida, it was a 3-day delivery. Got the one from "Ship ECM" and it did not work at all same symptoms, No check Engine light. Also got an email from SIA stating that my ECM could not be repaired and would be shipping it back. Still waiting on "Dead Jeeps" ECM. got my ECM back from SIA, tried the one from "Ship ECM" again, still nothing! just for kicks I tried the one that SIA had sent back and for some reason it worked!
