A failing ECM can manifest in numerous frustrating ways. If you’re experiencing issues like stalling, rough idling, poor fuel economy, shifting problems, or the engine simply won’t start, the computer could be the culprit.

Expert Insight: Why VIN Programming is Non-Negotiable
Think of the ECM as the central nervous system of your vehicle. A generic, non-programmed computer is like a brain with amnesia—it doesn’t know if your car has an automatic or manual transmission, what type of emissions system it has, or even the correct security key. Programming the module with your VIN provides this critical identity. It prevents a host of future problems, from incorrect transmission shift points to immobilizer lockouts. We handle this essential step for you, so you receive a part that works correctly right out of the box.
Don’t let a bad computer keep you sidelined. By providing your VIN at checkout, you ensure that the Programmed 12607096 ECM you receive is perfectly matched to your vehicle’s specific configuration. This is the most reliable and effective way to solve complex engine management problems and restore the dependable operation you count on.
Frequently Asked Questions
What information do I need to provide?
After you complete your purchase, you must provide us with your vehicle’s 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). This is essential for us to program the Programmed 12607096 ECM correctly for your specific car or truck.
Is this part difficult to install?
The physical installation is typically straightforward, involving disconnecting the battery, unplugging the electrical connectors, and unbolting the old module. However, many GM vehicles will require a security relearn procedure after installation, which can usually be done without special tools. We recommend consulting a repair manual for your specific vehicle’s procedure.
Will this fix my check engine light?
If the check engine light is caused by an internal failure of your original ECM (common fault codes include P0601-P0606), then this replacement unit is designed to be the correct fix. It is crucial to properly diagnose the issue before ordering to ensure the ECM is the source of the problem.
How do I find my VIN?
Your VIN can be found on a metal tag on the driver’s side of the 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 new or used part?
This is a quality, tested, and inspected original equipment part that has been professionally programmed to function as a direct replacement for your failed unit.
