An Expert’s Note on VIN Programming
Why is VIN programming so critical? In modern GM vehicles, the PCM is the central brain, communicating with dozens of other modules. Programming the 12200411 PCM with your specific VIN ensures it recognizes your engine, transmission, anti-theft system (VATS/Passlock), and all factory-installed options. Skipping this step would result in a vehicle that won’t start or runs with major system faults. We handle this essential process for you, delivering a component that integrates seamlessly with your vehicle, just like the original.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is any additional programming required after I install it?
This module comes fully programmed for engine and transmission functions. However, you will need to perform a security relearn procedure (often called a VATS relearn) so the PCM can sync with your vehicle’s anti-theft system. This is a simple process that typically takes 10-30 minutes and does not require any special tools.
How do I provide my VIN?
After you complete your purchase, you will need to send us your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). We cannot ship your part until we receive this information, as it is required for the programming process.
Where can I find my part number?
Your original PCM’s part number is printed on a sticker on the module itself. You can verify it matches one of the compatible numbers listed: 12200411, 12201281, 12576160, or 52369718.
Will this fix my check engine light?
If the check engine light and associated diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) are caused by a faulty PCM, this part is the correct solution. It is crucial to properly diagnose the vehicle first to ensure the PCM is the root cause of the problem.
What does the one-year replacement warranty cover?
The warranty covers any defects in the module itself. If the unit fails within one year of the purchase date, we will provide a replacement part. It does not cover issues caused by other faulty components on the vehicle or improper installation.
