Not sure, it could have been my P01/P59 loom that damaged it, I didnt realise when I first hooked it up that I had a non-standard pin used for B+ that worked fine on the other pcms, but is used for something else on the p04.

Going to give them the benefit of the doubt. International shipping from the US is a killer (more than the PCMs)

My bench harness:

Pin 20, 12V Battery
Pin 58, Data
Pin 60, Ground
12v is fused.

I'll check the V6 wiring diagrams before I use it...

Same pinout I have, havent tried a P04 though.
Is there a few part numbers for the _04 that we can search/look for? Happy pickup one also.

That is the standard pinouts and is correct. I built my desk loom way back, probably 8 years ago, I just expected it to work since its worked all this time on p01/p59. Its not an ongoing problem, just the kind of thing that burns you every so often doing this type of stuff.

Hi all,
Tazzi, both the 2004 Olds Alero I had, and the 2005 Chevy Venture that I have, use the LA1 3400 V6. They both use the same PCM:
I am sure there are others, but these two I know are used.
Mike
