Frequently Asked Questions
Is this engine computer truly Plug & Play?
Yes. Because we program the unit with the specific VIN and mileage you provide during checkout, it will integrate seamlessly with your vehicle’s existing systems, including the security module. No further programming or dealer intervention is required.
What information do you need from me to program it?
We require your vehicle’s 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and the current mileage. You can typically find the VIN on your dashboard (visible through the windshield), on your vehicle’s registration, or on the driver’s side door jamb sticker.
Will this fix erratic shifting in my transmission?
In many cases, yes. The engine computer works closely with the transmission control module (TCM) on these vehicles. If the ECM is sending faulty data, it can cause poor shifting performance. Replacing a bad ECM often resolves these related symptoms.
How can I be sure my original computer is the problem?
While the symptoms listed are strong indicators, it’s always wise to check the basics first. Ensure your battery is fully charged and the terminals are clean and tight. Inspect the main power and ground wires to the ECM for corrosion or damage. If these are good, and you have communication-related codes (like P0601), the ECM is the most likely cause.

This unit is backed by our one-year replacement warranty. This provides you with confidence and protection for your investment.
