TIPM Control Module

Hello All...
Bought an 06 2500 about a month ago. Prior owner had installed an after market radio, ( which was crap), and fog light needed to be repaired. After repairs I noticed all check lights on, odometer not working nor was the cruise control. Taking it to the shop they informed me the TIPM went out. I had hoped it was the speed sensor but the shop man said no. So how was I to know otherwise? Anyway, $1100 bucks later I drove it home.
I have the OLD TIPM. Is it worth anything? Can it be repaired?
Oh, forgot. I had a gooseneck hitch and trailer light hook up put in. The guys doing it said they had received a notification from Dodge that the hookup must be done right or it would fry the control module. This was done BEFORE the radio repair about a week later.
So....can anyone advise if there is a way to wire or rewire stuff on this truck without having to add on $1100 bucks each time for a new TIPM?
Thanks.
Randy
