Is Your Vehicle Running Rough, Stalling, or Refusing to Start?
A failing Powertrain Control Module (PCM) can be the source of countless frustrating and hard-to-diagnose issues, leaving you stranded and uncertain. If you’re experiencing a persistent check engine light, poor fuel economy, erratic transmission shifting, or a complete no-start condition, your vehicle’s central computer may be the culprit. Don’t let a faulty module keep you off the road. This is the reliable, straightforward solution to restore your vehicle’s performance and get you moving again.

An Expert Technician’s Tip
Before installing your replacement Programmed 09360210 PCM, take a moment to inspect the related wiring and ground connections. A common reason for original PCM failure is a shorted sensor, a corroded ground wire, or a faulty ignition coil. Ensuring the root cause of the original failure is fixed will protect your new module and guarantee a long-lasting repair. A clean, tight ground connection is one of the most importantโand often overlookedโparts of this job.
Frequently Asked Questions
What information do you need from me?
After you complete your purchase, you must provide us with your vehicle’s 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). We cannot ship your part until we have this information, as we use it to load the correct, vehicle-specific software onto the module.
Will I need to do anything after I install it?
In most cases, the module is ready to go. However, some vehicles may require a security relearn procedure (often called a CASE relearn or anti-theft relearn), which can typically be done without special tools. Instructions for this simple procedure can be easily found online for your specific make and model.
What if my old part number isn’t an exact match?
This module is compatible with several part numbers, including 12209614 and 12202600. As long as your vehicle’s year, make, and model are on our compatibility list, this module will function correctly once programmed to your VIN.
Is this a brand new part?
This is a high-quality, tested, and fully functional component that has been expertly programmed to ensure it meets or exceeds original equipment performance standards. It provides a reliable and affordable solution for your vehicle.
Will this fix my check engine light?
If the check engine light is caused by an internal failure of the original PCM (such as with code P0601), then this Programmed 09360210 PCM is the correct solution. If the light is on due to other issues like a bad sensor or wiring problem, those issues must be repaired separately.
