Fried PCM, help needed About a week ago my car was starting hard, and also was having electric problems (Lights flickering while driving, etc.). Then it would completely not start. The shop pulled the code (P0601 - Control Module Read Only Memory (ROM), and I was wondering if I have to get a completely new PCM and if so, how would I get my tune on it? I'm not even sure if it would run with a factory tune
Any help is appreciated.

OK So I had a new battery and terminal installed, and also got a new PCM with my tune flashed to it. Anything I should worry about before replacing the PCM? I'm assuming it got fried when I was having bad battery problems
I'm assuming the mechanic knows to disconnect the battery before replacing it
