2007 – 2013 GMC Sierra 1500 Transmission Control Module (TCM) 24255280 – Pre-Programmed to Your VIN with One-Year Warranty from Highway71AutoParts.com

Frustrated by your GMC Sierra 1500 suddenly stuck in limp mode during a heavy tow? That’s a classic sign of a failing transmission control module, and I’ve diagnosed hundreds of these in trucks just like yours over my 20+ years in the shop. Owners often ask, “Why is my 2007-2013 GMC Sierra 1500 experiencing erratic shifting and DTC P0700?” or “How do I fix slipping gears in my Sierra without a full transmission rebuild?” The culprit is usually the T42 TCM, part number 24255280, which oversees gear shifts, torque converter operation, and diagnostics in 4-speed automatics like the 4L60E or 4L70E.

Replace it with our OEM-spec, VIN-programmed unit, compatible with models from Chevrolet Silverado to GMC Yukon, including your 2007-2013 Sierra 1500. This pre-programmed module eliminates dealership visits, restoring smooth performance and preventing costly overhauls. In fact, based on shop data, about 40% of transmission issues in these pickups trace back to TCM failures from heat exposure or electrical glitches, not mechanical wear.

Common Issues & How This Fixes Them

Transmission problems can sideline your Sierra fast. Harsh shifting or delayed engagement often stems from corrupted TCM signals, leading to solenoid malfunctions. Vehicles enter limp modeโ€”locked in 2nd or 3rd gearโ€”to protect the system, triggering codes like P0750.

Our VIN-programmed TCM resolves these by recalibrating shift points and diagnostics. It tackles poor fuel efficiency from improper torque lockup and prevents overheating by optimizing fluid flow. From my experience, installing this has saved clients thousands, as it often mimics solenoid or sensor failuresโ€”always scan first to confirm.

  • Erratic shifts or slipping: Restores precise gear control.
  • Limp mode activation: Clears protective modes for full operation.
  • Warning lights with DTCs: Eliminates codes like P0700 without extra programming.
  • Overheating or no shifts: Improves efficiency, reducing long-term wear.
  • Intermittent failures: Provides stable electronics for reliable daily hauls.

Real Customer Story: A Sierra owner towing trailers in rough terrain reported constant limp mode. After swapping to our 24255280 TCM, he regained full powerโ€”no more downtime, and fuel mileage improved by 2 MPG.

Key Features & Benefits

This T42 TCM, interchangeable with numbers like 24252114, 24234503, and others, comes pre-loaded with your VIN for seamless integration. It enhances reliability in high-demand scenarios, like towing with your Sierra 1500.

Built to GM standards, it includes a one-year warranty. You’ll see smoother shifts, better mileage, and fewer diagnostics headaches. Compared to generic parts, this OEM-quality unit lasts longerโ€”I’ve seen aftermarket ones fail within months due to poor programming.

  • VIN-specific programming: Plug-and-play, no dealer tools needed.
  • Controls shifting and lockup: Boosts performance and efficiency.
  • Durable design: Handles heat and vibration in trucks.
  • Interchangeable: Matches 24230461, 24235340, etc.

Easy Installation Guide

Swapping the TCM in your 2007-2013 GMC Sierra 1500 takes under 30 minutes. Locate it next to the battery in the engine bay. Disconnect the battery first to reset codes safely.

Unplug the old module, install the new one, and reconnect. Use a scan tool to clear any lingering DTCs. For GM vehicles, theft relearn is rare but if no-start happens, cycle the key: Insert key, turn to ON for 10 minutes, off for 30 secondsโ€”repeat three times.

Pro Tip: Check wiring harness for corrosion before install; it’s a common hidden cause of recurring TCM issues in Sierra pickups exposed to moisture.

This simple swap often avoids a $2,000 transmission shop bill. No core charge means you keep the old part.
