engine control module failure causing short

Well, the Dealer is unable to get a part anymore so I have to either get a junk yard part and have the Dealership reprogram the Used ECM for about $250 to $300 with a 50% chance that it will work or buying a Remanufactured EMC for $300 and installing it myself to save labour cost. This car is a really nice vehicle, however, prior to the ECM being the diagnosed problem, fuses and bulbs would burn out, then the number four cylinder coil pack would melt.

The vehicle can be driven now with the number four cylinder coil pack being disconnected however the engine then runs ruff as it is only running on three cylinders. It would save a lot of trouble if the dealer had replacement Engine Control Modules that work but with older collectable vehicles they do not seem to give a crap! Man I miss the day when cars had less stuff attached to the engine and anyone with a brain and a wrench could repair them. It seems that Vehicle Manufacturers only make disposable cars now?
