Nope, they're different animals altogether.

The AOD tranny does not require any computer control. The AODE does.

So since the E4OD requires a computer and the AOD doesn't then he either needs a reprogrammed computer, or use the E4OD right? Because if I remember right a truck with an E4OD that does not have its harness to the trans plugged in, it won't start.

Is this correct?
