Default 2005 grand cherokee module question

does the "chrysler" PCM have to be in place for the other modules (BMC etc) to communicate and work properly. or will the rest of the vehicle operate properly with a standalone PCM separate from the others?

The PCM will need to be there. EVERYTHING is controlled by the PCM in these vehicles. You'll never see a stand-alone in one of these vehicles unless the owner wants to give up all of the vehicles features.

I have a dealer who does LS swaps on Jeep Wranglers, and he has to piggyback the LS1 PCM on top of the DCX PCM just to make the vehicle function.
