Get Your GM Truck or Van Back on the Road, Fast.
Is your Silverado, Express, or Tahoe suddenly running rough, refusing to start, or throwing confusing check engine lights? A failing Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is often the hidden culprit behind these frustrating issues. This isn’t just a replacement part; it’s the definitive solution to restore your vehicle’s performance and reliability. We provide a professionally Programmed 12200411 PCM, flashed with the latest GM software specifically for your vehicle’s VIN. This ensures a seamless installation and gets you back to work or back to your family with confidence.

- Poor fuel economy and engine performance
- Harsh or erratic automatic transmission shifting
- Apparent failure of multiple sensors at once
- Stalling for no reason while driving or at idle

Expert Insight: The Brain of Your Vehicle
As a technician for over 20 years, I’ve seen people spend hundreds, sometimes thousands, chasing what they thought was a bad transmission, a faulty fuel pump, or a dozen bad sensors. In many of these early 2000s GM vehicles, the root cause was a failing PCM. The internal processors degrade over time, sending corrupt data that makes other perfectly good parts seem broken. Installing a quality, correctly Programmed 12200411 PCM doesn’t just replace a part; it restores the central command center of your truck, ensuring all components work together in harmony again. Itโs the smart repair that fixes the problem right the first time.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I provide my Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)?
After you complete your purchase, you will need to send us your 17-digit VIN. We cannot program and ship the module without it. Please double-check it for accuracy to ensure a perfect match for your vehicle.
Will I need to do anything after installing this PCM?
In most cases, you may need to perform a simple security relearn procedure, which can be done without special tools and takes about 30 minutes. Instructions are readily available online for your specific model. Some vehicles may also require a Crankshaft Variation Relearn (CASE relearn) which requires a compatible scan tool to clear a P1336 code, though the vehicle will still run and drive without it.
Is this a brand new part?
This is a high-quality, genuine GM replacement part that has been thoroughly inspected, tested, and prepared for service to ensure it meets or exceeds original performance standards.
Will this fix my transmission shifting problems?
The PCM controls both the engine and the transmission. If your shifting issues are electronic and caused by a faulty computer, this part is the correct solution. It will not fix internal mechanical failures within the transmission itself. Proper diagnosis is always recommended.
How quickly will my order ship?
Once we receive your VIN, we typically program and ship the module within 1-2 business days. The programming process is specific to your vehicle and is performed with care to ensure quality.
What if this doesn’t fix my problem?
This part is guaranteed to fix any issues directly related to a faulty PCM. We strongly advise a proper diagnosis from a qualified mechanic to confirm the PCM is the point of failure. The unit is backed by a one-year replacement warranty for any issues with the module itself.
