Restore Your Trax’s Performance and Reliability
Is your Chevrolet Trax acting up? Stalling, poor fuel economy, or a persistent Check Engine Light can turn your daily drive into a source of constant worry.

This fully programmed ECM is the definitive, hassle-free solution to get your vehicle running like new again, restoring both its performance and your peace of mind.

Expert Insight: The Critical Role of VIN Programming
A common mistake is purchasing a used ECM from a salvage yard without proper programming. While the part number might match, that module is still ‘locked’ to the donor vehicle’s VIN and its specific equipment (like transmission type or security system). Installing it will almost always result in a no-start condition or a cascade of error codes. Our professional programming service completely erases the old data and rebuilds the software specifically for your car. This is the secret to a successful and lasting repair, and it’s a service we include with every 2013-2014 Chevy Trax ECM we sell.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to do anything after installation?
In many cases, the vehicle will start and run immediately. However, some GM vehicles may require a simple security relearn procedure, which can typically be done without special tools and takes about 30 minutes. We can provide instructions for this process. A CASE (Crankshaft Angle Sensor Error) relearn may also be needed, which requires a capable scan tool.
Where do I provide my VIN?
After you complete your purchase, simply send us a message with your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). We cannot program and ship your 2013-2014 Chevy Trax ECM until we receive this information.
Is this a new part?
This is a high-quality, tested, and fully functional existing part. Each unit is meticulously inspected and verified to meet or exceed original performance specifications before being programmed for your vehicle.
How can I be sure my ECM is the problem?
While the symptoms listed are strong indicators, it’s always best to have a professional diagnosis performed. This includes checking for power and ground at the ECM connector and ruling out issues with wiring or sensors. If your mechanic has condemned the ECM, this is your solution.
What is your warranty policy on this part?
This unit is backed by our one-year replacement warranty. If you experience any issues with the module within one year of purchase, we will provide a replacement unit.
How long does the programming and shipping process take?
Programming is typically completed within one business day after we receive your VIN. Shipping times then depend on the method you select at checkout. We work quickly to minimize your vehicle’s downtime.
