Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to do any programming myself?
No. This module arrives fully programmed to your vehicle’s VIN and is ready for installation right out of the box. The only additional step you may need is a simple security relearn procedure, which takes about 10-15 minutes and requires only your car key.
Where do I provide my VIN?
After you place your order, we will contact you via email to request your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN. We cannot ship your part until we have this information to complete the programming.
Will this fix my specific problem?
This PCM is a proven solution for a wide range of engine performance, transmission, and electrical issues. However, we always recommend that a proper diagnosis is performed before ordering to confirm the PCM is the point of failure.
What is the security relearn procedure?
Most GM vehicles of this era use a Passlock or VATS security system. After installing the new PCM, you may need to help the system recognize it. This is typically done by turning the key to the ‘ON’ position for 10 minutes, then ‘OFF’ for 10 seconds, and repeating this cycle three times. Instructions will be included with your part.
What if my original part number is different?
This module is a direct replacement for several part numbers, including 12209614 and 12202600, in addition to 09360210. As long as your vehicle is on the compatibility list, our VIN programming will ensure it functions correctly.
Is this a new or used part?
This is a high-quality, OEM-sourced component that has been thoroughly inspected, tested, and programmed with the latest software to ensure it meets or exceeds original factory performance.
