Expert Insight from the Shop Floor
As a tech with 20+ years of experience, I’ve seen countless drivers chase symptoms all over their engine, replacing perfectly good sensors and parts, only to find the core issue was the PCM. The engine computer is the ‘brain’ of your vehicle; when it fails, it sends bad signals everywhere. A junkyard module might seem cheap, but without the correct VIN programming, it’s a paperweight that can cause more problems than it solves. This Programmed 16263494 Powertrain Control Module is the professional-grade solution that ensures the ‘brain’ is healthy, updated, and communicating correctly with the rest of your vehicle’s systems.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I provide my VIN number?
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. You can find your VIN on your vehicle’s dashboard (driver’s side), the driver’s side door jamb sticker, or on your insurance/registration documents.
Will I need to do anything after I install it?
Yes. While the main programming is done, you will need to perform a simple security relearn procedure (often called a VATS relearn) so the module recognizes your key. This procedure typically takes 10-30 minutes and does not require special tools. Instructions can be easily found online for your specific model. In some cases, a Crankshaft Variation Relearn (CASE) may be needed with a scan tool to clear a P1336 code, but this is often not required for the vehicle to run properly.
Is this a brand new part?
This is a genuine, original equipment (OEM) module that has been meticulously inspected, cleaned, and tested to ensure it meets or exceeds factory specifications. We then load it with fresh, vehicle-specific software. This provides the reliability of an OEM part with the benefit of the latest software updates.
My old part number isn’t 16263494, but it’s on your list. Will this work?
Yes. The part numbers listed (like 16265035, etc.) are all hardware-compatible service numbers that this module can replace. As long as your vehicle is on the compatibility list and we program the module with your VIN, it will function correctly as the proper replacement.
Will this fix my specific problem?
This module is the direct solution for issues originating from a faulty PCM, including many check engine light codes, no-start conditions, and erratic behavior. However, it’s crucial to ensure your vehicle’s underlying mechanical and electrical systems are in good working order. Proper diagnosis is key.
