Restore Peak Performance to Your 2007 Pontiac Torrent
Is your 2007 Pontiac Torrent suffering from frustrating issues like a persistent check engine light, poor fuel economy, stalling, or a no-start condition? These are common signs of a failing Engine Control Module (ECM), the central computer responsible for managing your vehicle’s engine performance, emissions, and efficiency. Don’t let a faulty module keep you off the road. This direct replacement ECM, part number 19210738, is the reliable solution to restore your vehicle’s original performance and drivability.
The ECM is the brain of your vehicle, constantly processing information from sensors throughout the engine to make real-time adjustments to the fuel mixture, ignition timing, and transmission shifting. When it begins to fail, the entire system can be thrown into disarray, leading to a cascade of problems that can be difficult to diagnose. Replacing the module with a generic, unprogrammed part often leads to more headaches and compatibility issues. Our process eliminates that risk entirely.
Diagnosing a Faulty 2007 Torrent Engine Module
If you’re experiencing any of the following symptoms, it’s a strong indication that your engine control module needs attention. A failing ECM can manifest in various ways, from subtle performance degradation to complete engine shutdown. This replacement module is designed to resolve these specific issues and get your vehicle running smoothly again.
- ✔ Check Engine Light: The check engine light is illuminated, often with codes related to module communication or sensor circuits.
- ✔ No-Start or Hard Starting: The engine cranks but refuses to start, or takes an unusually long time to fire up.
- ✔ Poor Engine Performance: Noticeable loss of power, hesitation during acceleration, and rough idling.
- ✔ Reduced Fuel Economy: Your vehicle is suddenly consuming more fuel than usual due to incorrect fuel and air mixture calculations.
- ✔ Intermittent Stalling: The engine shuts off unexpectedly while driving or when coming to a stop.
- ✔ Transmission Problems: Harsh or erratic shifting, as the ECM plays a key role in communicating with the transmission control module.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to get this ECM programmed by a dealer?
No. We handle all the programming for you before shipment. Simply provide us with your vehicle’s VIN during or after checkout, and the module will arrive with the correct software for your specific vehicle, ready for installation.
Is this part difficult to install?
For the 2007 Pontiac Torrent, the ECM is located in the left-hand (driver’s side) engine compartment. Installation involves disconnecting the battery, unplugging the electrical connectors, and unbolting the old module. While it’s a straightforward process for those with mechanical experience, some vehicles may require a security relearn procedure after installation, which can typically be done without special tools.
How do I provide my VIN?
You can add your VIN to the notes section during checkout. If you forget, don’t worry—we will contact you via email after your purchase to request the information needed for programming. We cannot ship the part until we have programmed it.
What if my original part number is different?
This module is a compatible replacement for several part numbers, including 12589297, 12597121, and 12603892. As long as your vehicle is on the compatibility list, this module will function correctly once programmed to your VIN.
Will this fix my check engine light?
If the check engine light and associated diagnostic codes are caused by a faulty ECM, then yes, this part will resolve the issue. However, it’s essential to ensure that the codes are not being caused by other failing components like sensors or wiring. A proper diagnosis is always recommended.
