Is Your Chevrolet Traverse or GM SUV Experiencing Engine Problems?

A failing Engine Control Module (ECM), often called the engine computer, is a common cause of frustrating and difficult-to-diagnose issues in vehicles like the 2010-2011 Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Buick Enclave. If you’re dealing with a check engine light that won’t go away, unexplained stalling, poor fuel economy, or a no-start condition, the ECM could be the culprit. This module is the brain of your engine, controlling everything from fuel injection and ignition timing to emissions systems. When it fails, the entire vehicle’s performance and reliability suffer.

From the Diagnostic Bay

We recently had a 2011 Acadia come in with a bizarre issue: it would run perfectly for about 15 minutes and then suddenly lose power and stall, refusing to restart for an hour. The owner had replaced the fuel pump and multiple sensors with no success. After extensive testing, we traced the issue to the ECM. Heat soak was causing an internal circuit to fail. A simple replacement with a correctly programmed module had the vehicle running reliably within the day. Don’t waste time and money chasing ghosts; a faulty ECM often mimics other component failures.

Symptoms of a Failing Engine Control Module

  • ✔ Persistent Check Engine Light (CEL) with various trouble codes.
  • ✔ Engine stalling or shutting off unexpectedly while driving.
  • ✔ Difficulty starting the engine or a complete no-start condition.
  • ✔ Noticeable decrease in fuel efficiency.
  • ✔ Rough idling, misfires, or hesitation during acceleration.
  • ✔ Transmission shifting problems or harsh shifts.
  • ✔ Communication errors with diagnostic scan tools.

The Direct-Fit Solution: A Programmed 2010-2011 Traverse ECM

Replacing the ECM isn’t as simple as swapping out a battery. Each module is coded specifically to the vehicle’s Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). This programming ensures that the ECM communicates correctly with all other modules in your vehicle, from the transmission to the anti-lock brakes. Our service eliminates the guesswork and the need for expensive dealership programming. We take your VIN, flash this replacement module with the latest, most stable software updates directly from GM, and ship it to you ready for installation. This ensures optimal performance and compatibility right out of the box.

This module is a direct replacement for several original equipment part numbers, including 19300015, 19300014, 12617230, 12636355, and 12635019. Upon purchase, simply provide us with your vehicle’s VIN, and we’ll handle the critical programming process before shipment.

Important Note for Camaro and LaCrosse Owners: For these specific models, the ECM contains immobilizer (anti-theft) information that is unique to your vehicle. To ensure a true plug-and-play installation, we require your original module to transfer this data to the replacement unit. We will provide instructions for this simple process after your purchase.

This Part Fits:

  • 2010-2011 Buick LaCrosse (3.6L)
  • 2010-2011 Chevrolet Traverse
  • 2010-2011 Cadillac CTS (3.6L)
  • 2010-2011 Chevrolet Camaro (3.6L)

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to do any programming after I receive this ECM?

No. We program the module to the VIN you provide before shipping. For most listed vehicles, it will be ready for installation right out of the box. The only exception is for Camaro and LaCrosse models, which require an additional immobilizer data transfer from your old unit, a service we facilitate.

What is a VIN and where do I find it?

The VIN is your vehicle’s unique 17-digit identification number. You can typically find it on a plate on the driver’s side dashboard (visible through the windshield), on the driver’s side door jamb sticker, or on your vehicle’s registration and insurance documents.

Is this a difficult part to install?

On the Traverse, Acadia, Enclave, and Outlook, the ECM is located behind the fan shroud, making it reasonably accessible for someone with moderate mechanical skill. We always recommend disconnecting the battery before starting any work. If you are not comfortable with automotive repair, we suggest seeking professional installation.

Will this fix my check engine light?

If the check engine light and associated symptoms are caused by a faulty ECM, this replacement part will resolve the issue. However, it’s crucial to ensure the problem has been correctly diagnosed, as other failing sensors or components can cause similar symptoms. A proper diagnosis is always the best first step.

How do I know if this part number is correct for my vehicle?

This module replaces part numbers 19300015, 19300014, 12617230, 12636355, and 12635019. As long as your vehicle is one of the models listed in the fitment chart and has the 3.6L engine where specified, this is the correct computer. The VIN programming we perform ensures it functions perfectly for your specific application.
