Expert Insight: The Importance of a VIN-Matched Module
Many people don’t realize that a PCM is not a ‘one-size-fits-all’ part.

Using a generic or non-programmed module can lead to poor performance, transmission damage, or even prevent the car from starting.

This critical step restores the smooth, responsive operation you expect and prevents a host of potential compatibility issues.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to do any programming myself?
Absolutely not. This PCM arrives pre-programmed to your vehicle’s VIN. The process is designed to be as simple as possible: disconnect the battery, swap the module, and reconnect the battery. In some cases, a security relearn procedure may be required, which can typically be done without special tools.
How do I provide my VIN?
After you complete your purchase, we will contact you to request the 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) from your car. We cannot ship the part until we have this information to program it correctly.
Will this fix my specific problem?
This module is the solution for issues directly caused by a faulty PCM. If your vehicle is experiencing symptoms like a no-start condition, erratic shifting, or internal module error codes (like P0601), this part is designed to resolve those problems. It is a vital component for restoring your vehicle’s proper function. The 1999 Alero PCM 9356741 is the correct brain for a healthy powertrain.
