[Shotimes] IRCM Compatibility

Hey all...
I have two other 1990 IRCMs available, in cars that are running, that I'm thinking
of trying in the Lowrider to see if that is the problem. The one in the Lowrider
has a red label with "M" as the large letter in the center. I haven't looked at the
others, but as I say, they are both '90s.
Lowrider's other symptom that makes me think it is the IRCM is the fact that when
the key goes to on, the cooling fan starts up....somewhere in the past I've heard
that was a symptom of a bad IRCM. I'll read the codes before I do anything...I
didn't have my jumper at the failure site.
Are all IRCMs from a given year compatable with each other? I'd think ATXs would
use a different one than an MTX after 1993, but that isn't a concern here.
Anyone have any experience? Al Fitz has another one on the way to me, and I'll
definitely plug it in, but in the meantime, am I risking anything?
Thanks!!
George
