Car Forum / Nissan / Nissan Maxima / July 200798 Maxima computer problem
If I replace stock computer with salvage yard computer will it have to be flashed or will it be a plug and go thing. Thanks >If I replace stock computer with salvage yard computer will it have to be >flashed or will it be a plug and go thing. Thanks make sure the vehicle it comes off of is the same 'state" version as yours. There are '49 state" and "Ca " versions,,,different number of 02 sensors (at least on my 2000 that is). Otherwise it should be OK,,though I welcome comments on that statement. You can replace the ECM with a salvage yard unit but you will need to have all the key reprogrammed to this ECM or the vehicle won't start. > If I replace stock computer with salvage yard computer will it have to be > flashed or will it be a plug and go thing.

Thanks I thought the anti-theft (programmed key) was a 99 and onwards Model year thing... I don't think it's there in the 97.
