PCM repair available?

So I have the OEM PCM that came with my truck when I bought wich was bad, upon visual inspection theres no burnt parts or water damage, can this pcm be repaired? If so where can I send it out? I would also like the latest calibrations on it as well
I wouldnt mind having 2 spare pcm laying around.

It wasn't that long ago that someone was talking about just that. Maybe use the search?

I have never had to use a repair place for a PCM, but with a lifetime warranty it might be worth a shot.

I used SIA electronics out of Tilden Illinois , Also from Ebay....... I used their repair service ..... They had the ***** to tell me mine was Fine.....No Issues .....Charged me accordingly like they said before ...At least I knew where to start on my electrical Issues....I would send it to them....I pay 40 % more than you because I am Canadien ........It was like $118 your money ...shipped....
It cost me 28 CAD to ship it to them in the first place ...I also followed up with a Technician on the Phone 2 weeks later....they seem Honest.....Good Luck

Thanks for the reply guys, the only reason I asked is because it has no vissual or obvious things making me think one of the "roms" or what ever they are called that cant be replaced or be obsolete. But still worth checking my current PCM and my spare dont have the updated OBD11 calibration but the bad pcm did and boy do I miss it when it comes to checking for codes and running tests.
