Default I need a new Jeep GC PCM

I have 96 grand cherokee that is getting the electrical ghosts. All kinds of crazy problems in the past few years, and the only errors I get with a reader is that the o2 sensor is dirty. I want to just get a new computer for it, refurbished or aftermarket, I don't really care. I just need a 4wd vehicle before winter comes.

Any suggestions on it?


Some of the problems include random engine shutdown, no idle for the first few minutes of running (vac line?), doors unlocking and locking at random, won't charge the battery but the alternator is testing fine (whaddafawk?), and lots of little strange electrical issues that all point to a bad computer.

The regulator for the alt is in the PCM on those things, would explain that problem for sure. that's the same motor I used in my first buggy. I got the Mopar performance PCM for mine, woke that thing right up.
