The ECM that is used in the GN.. What other cars did they come in? I think mine is bad and want to go to the junk yard for one before I drop the money at the dealer...

I know I have to swap over both chips but need a range of vehicles seeing how most people at the scrap yards are like duh!
 
Im pretty sure you can use a ECM from some of the Gm front wheel drive cars like the park ave, oldsmobile delta 88, etc. I think the years are from 86-88. Im not exactly sure on the years but I bought one from the salvage yard last week out of a 86 olds. delta 88 and it cost me 25 bucks. Swapped out both chips and it works great.
