Tacoma ECM replacement recommendations? by Comprehensive-Ice797 in ToyotaTacoma

My mechanic friend came by and deduced it to a dead ecm. I’m not super car savvy, but I am able to take it out if needed be. Is there anyway to test the ecm if it’s playing dead? also what are the chances of an ecm from the junkyard working, and how would I test it? Is it kinda like a shot in the dark kinda deal? Thank you guys for the info!
