It is also perfectly within the realm of possibility that the CaravanGuy's 1997 trans computer has been firmware updated to a NEWER firmware version than the 2001 trans computer out of the boneyard. If it was me rather than spending the money on the computer at the wrecknig yard, I would have driven into the dealership and had them flash my existing computer to the most current firmware, which is certainly newer than 2001.
