Is Your GM Truck or SUV Acting Up?
If you’re dealing with a persistent check engine light, erratic engine performance, harsh shifting, or even a frustrating no-start condition, a failing Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is often the culprit. As the brain of your vehicle’s engine and transmission, when the PCM goes bad, it can cause a cascade of problems that are impossible to ignore. I’ve seen it hundreds of times in the shop: a perfectly good engine held hostage by a faulty computer.
This isn’t just a replacement part; it’s a direct solution. We are offering a genuine GM-spec PCM, service number 12602802, that arrives at your doorstep programmed and ready for installation. Simply provide us with your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN during checkout, and our technicians will flash the module with the latest, most stable software updates from General Motors. This ensures perfect communication between the computer and your vehicle’s specific systems.
Expert Pro Tip: Check Your Connectors First!
Before you condemn your old PCM, take a moment to inspect the electrical connectors. On these GM trucks, the PCM is located under the battery tray, an area prone to moisture and corrosion from battery acid fumes. I’ve diagnosed dozens of vehicles where simply cleaning green or white corrosion from the connector pins with a small wire brush and contact cleaner restored full function. It’s a 10-minute check that can save you time and money.

Simple Installation Guide
- Safety First: Disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery and secure it away from the post.
- Access the Module: On most compatible trucks and SUVs (like the Suburban, Tahoe, Silverado), the PCM is located on the driver’s side of the engine bay, under the battery and battery tray. You will need to remove both to access it.
- Disconnect the Old PCM: Carefully unclip and remove the electrical harness connectors from the old module. Note their color and orientation. Then, unbolt the PCM from its mounting bracket.
- Install the New PCM: Mount the new module securely in the bracket and firmly reconnect the electrical harnesses. Ensure they click into place.
- Reassemble & Reconnect: Reinstall the battery tray and the battery. Reconnect the negative battery terminal.
- Final Steps: Turn the key to the ‘ON’ position for 10 seconds before starting the engine. This allows the systems to initialize. The vehicle is now ready to drive.
