A Word From The Workbench: I’ve been turning wrenches on these GM trucks for over two decades. In the past, swapping a PCM was the start of a new headache. You’d install the part, but the truck wouldn’t start because the security system didn’t recognize it. That meant a tow to the dealer and a hefty bill for programming. This solution changes the game. By sending you a Programmed 16263494 PCM, we handle the complex part for you. All that’s left for you is a simple ‘Security Relearn Procedure’ that you can do in your own driveway in about 10-15 minutes with just the ignition key. It’s the most efficient way to get your vehicle running perfectly again.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to do anything after installing the module?
Yes. In most cases, you will need to perform a simple Security Relearn Procedure (also known as a VATS or Passlock relearn). This process syncs the new module to your vehicle’s anti-theft system and can be done in about 10-15 minutes using only your ignition key. We include clear instructions to guide you through this easy process.
How do I provide you with my vehicle’s VIN?
After you complete your purchase, you can either add your 17-digit VIN to the ‘notes’ section at checkout, or you can simply reply to your order confirmation email with it. We cannot ship your part until we have the VIN to program it correctly.
Is this a new part?
This is a high-quality, genuine OEM unit that has been thoroughly inspected, tested, and prepared by our expert technicians to ensure it functions to factory specifications. This provides the best combination of reliability and value.
Will this definitely fix my vehicle’s problem?
This module is a definitive fix for internal PCM failure, indicated by codes like P0601 (Internal Control Module Memory Check Sum Error). While it resolves a wide range of electronic and driveability issues, we always recommend a proper diagnosis to confirm the PCM is the point of failure before ordering.
My original part number isn’t an exact match. Will this still work?
Yes. The part number 16263494 is a common hardware number used by GM for many applications. Our VIN-based programming ensures that the software loaded onto the module is an exact match for your vehicle, making it compatible with the alternate part numbers listed and ensuring it functions correctly.
How long does the programming process take?
We typically program and prepare your module for shipment within one business day of receiving your VIN. Our goal is to minimize your vehicle’s downtime and get you the right part, fast.
