Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Transmission Control Module do?
The TCM is a computer that processes data from various sensors on your vehicle to control all aspects of your automatic transmission’s operation. It manages when the transmission shifts gears, controls the torque converter clutch, and adjusts fluid pressure to ensure smooth and efficient performance.
Is this TCM difficult to install?
For someone with basic mechanical skills, installation is straightforward. The TCM is typically located in the engine bay (often next to the battery on the 2007 Silverado). The process involves disconnecting the battery, unplugging the electrical connectors from the old module, unbolting it, and installing the new one in its place. The entire job usually takes less than 30 minutes.
Will this part require additional programming at a dealership?
