Hoping Someone has seen this before.

I recently started my '99 for the first time in a while. Took it for a short drive and all seemed fine.

It has 30k on the clock.

I turned it off, and went to start it again within a few minutes. Started right up, but then shut off within two seconds. Odd... Started again, fired right up, but then shut off within a few seconds once more.

Went to start it for a third time and won't even crank. Most gauges aren't working either.

Had it towed to a local garage, they checked everything and are telling me the PCM is bad, but do not see a PCM code stored. If I remember correctly they stated PIN 34 on the PCM is supposed to read at 5 ohms and instead it is reading 52,000 ohms.... Long story short they are stating that the computer is not telling the engine to crank.

They are suggesting a replacement PCM, which do no exist anywhere.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

I’d check fuel pressure first......do you hear the fuel pump run and build pressure when you first turn the key to ‘run’ not ‘start’ but just ‘run’?

I have no firsthand experience with this company but others have had their pcm repaired by them with good results. http://www.bgperformance.com/

That being said I would talk to Tony first

I'm still going through my problems with the PCM. I'll advise when it gets figured out. PCM maybe the worse thing to go on a prowler because there isn't any replacements.
