Question Bad pcm causing po200 code??

I posted this in the LT-1 section with little sucess--I got an exchange pcm from Pcmforless, on the original program i made the mistake of getting Bryan to set the idle to high--i sent it back to him, got the pcm back--hook it up and later drive to work, on the way at highway speed it started to stumble,saturday at slow speed it stumbled and threw my ses light, then it started to flash, then went steady and flashed again--Autozone sezs its a po200 code, a injector circuit problem--i checked my pcm connections--Do i have a bad pcm?? It wasnt doing this before i sent it back or did by chance this problem just happen?? Thanks Dwayne

Dwayne since you just put the computer in and it is an exchange everything points to that. Take the computer back out. Look very closely to the red connector all the injector circuits go into this plug. Inj. 1 pin3, Inj. 2 pin19, Inj. 3 pin21, Inj. 4 pin4, Inj. 5 pin 20, Inj. 6 pin 5, Inj. 7 pin 6, and Inj. 8 pin 22. Inspect the connections very closely looking for anything bent or on the connector side pushed back. If it all looks good my guess is the computer. Hope that helps.
