From the Technician’s Bench: We had a customer with a 2000 Chevy Express van for his plumbing business. The van was stalling randomly at job sites, costing him time and money. The diagnosis pointed to an internal PCM failure. Instead of tying up his work vehicle for days at a dealer, he ordered our pre-programmed module. He provided his VIN, we flashed the unit, and shipped it out. He installed it himself in the parking lot that afternoon and was back on the road to his next job. That’s the peace of mind we deliver – a reliable part that gets your essential vehicle running right, fast.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a PCM and what does it do?
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM), also known as the Engine Control Module (ECM) or Engine Computer, is the central computer that controls all aspects of your vehicle’s engine and transmission. It manages fuel injection, ignition timing, emissions systems, and transmission shift points to ensure optimal performance, efficiency, and reliability.
Do I need to do anything after I install this module?
Our module is programmed to be plug-and-play. However, on many GM vehicles, you will need to perform a simple security relearn procedure (often called a CASE relearn or Passlock relearn). This procedure syncs the new PCM with your vehicle’s anti-theft system and can typically be done in your driveway without any special tools. Instructions are widely available online or we can help point you in the right direction.
How do I provide my VIN?
After you complete your purchase, simply send us a message with your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). We cannot program and ship your module without it. Please double-check the VIN for accuracy to ensure a perfect match.
Is this compatible with my specific vehicle?
This module fits a wide range of GM trucks, vans, and SUVs from approximately 1998-2002. Please review the detailed fitment list on this page carefully. The key is to match the part number (16263494) listed in your vehicle’s options. If you’re unsure, feel free to contact us with your VIN, and we’ll be happy to verify compatibility for you.
What makes your programming service different?
