E4OD stand alone controller

I have a 1993 f350 4x4 dually 7.5. My trans is in limp mode I believe. I have almost checked everything except the pcm. Coil packs are working. Thinking about putting a standalone controller on. Anyone have experience with them?

I am running an original compushift to control my E40D but I am running a cummins so I need it. It works as it should .In your case you should check for codes and repair any issues.The factory controller works well in a OE setting.

Thanks. After pricing them I think I will keep digging. Factory computer would be cheaper.

If you don't know why it's in limp mode installing another controller may not fix the problem.

The ONLY way to fix this is to read the codes.

it has a solenoid 1 circuit problem. Cant remember the code right off . Trans shifts if I ground solenoids manually. Mlps , tps , relay, fuse, diode and wires to trans check out.
I didnt know how expensive they were when i posted. I will keep troubleshooting. OEM pcm would be much cheaper if that's the problem.
