Restore Peak Performance to Your Pontiac Pursuit
Is your 2006 Pontiac Pursuit or other GM vehicle suffering from frustrating engine problems? A faulty Engine Control Module (ECM) is often the hidden culprit behind issues like a persistent check engine light, poor fuel economy, stalling, or a complete no-start condition. This replacement Engine Control Module, part number 19210737, is the definitive solution to restore your vehicle’s factory performance, reliability, and drivability. We take the guesswork and hassle out of the repair by programming the module specifically to your vehicle’s VIN before it ships. This ensures a seamless installation process, getting you back on the road quickly and confidently.
From the Diagnostic Bay
We had a 2008 Chevy Colorado come into the shop with a classic complaint: intermittent stalling and a check engine light that previous mechanics couldn’t solve. They had replaced the crank sensor, cam sensors, and even the throttle body, but the problem persisted. After hooking up our professional scan tool, we noticed communication dropouts with the ECM. The data stream would just freeze, then come back. This pointed directly to an internal failure in the engine computer. We installed one of these VIN-programmed modules, performed the security relearn, and the truck ran perfectly. It’s a great reminder that chasing sensors can be a costly dead end when the vehicle’s brain is the actual source of the problem.
Why Choose a VIN-Programmed 2006 Pursuit Engine Module?
The Engine Control Module is the central computer of your vehicle, managing everything from fuel injection and ignition timing to transmission shifting and emissions systems. When it fails, the entire system is compromised. Our service eliminates the need for expensive dealership programming or specialized tools. By providing your VIN during checkout, you receive a module that is loaded with the latest GM-certified software specific to your vehicle’s configuration. This plug-and-play approach is the most efficient way to ensure all systems communicate correctly from the moment of installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to program this ECM after I receive it?
No. We handle all the programming for you before shipment. Simply provide your 17-digit VIN when you place your order, and the module will arrive with the latest GM software specific to your vehicle, ready for installation.
Where is the ECM located on my 2006 Pontiac Pursuit?
On the 2006 Pontiac Pursuit with the 2.4L engine, the Engine Control Module is typically located in the left-hand (driver’s side) front of the engine compartment.
What is a security relearn procedure?
After installation, most GM vehicles require a simple security relearn to sync the new ECM with your vehicle’s anti-theft system. This can usually be done without any special tools by turning the key to the ‘ON’ position for 10 minutes, then ‘OFF’ for 10 seconds, and repeating this cycle three times. Specific instructions for your vehicle can be easily found online.
Is this part compatible with other vehicles besides the Pontiac Pursuit?
Yes, this ECM hardware fits a very wide range of GM cars and trucks from the mid-2000s. However, the critical part is the programming. The software we install will be unique to the VIN you provide, ensuring it functions perfectly for your specific make, model, and options.
What VIN do I need to provide?
Please provide the 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) found on your vehicle’s dashboard (visible through the windshield on the driver’s side) or on the sticker in the driver’s side door jamb. This ensures we flash the correct software for your car’s exact build.
