Is Your GM Vehicle Running Rough, Stalling, or Showing a Check Engine Light?
A failing Powertrain Control Module (PCM) can be the source of countless frustrating and hard-to-diagnose issues. If your Chevrolet Impala, Pontiac Grand Prix, or Buick LeSabre is suffering from erratic behavior, poor fuel economy, or won’t pass an emissions test, you’ve found the reliable, cost-effective solution. This is a genuine, tested OEM Engine Computer, part number 09361735, that gets your vehicle back to factory-spec operation without the dealership price tag.
Common Symptoms & Your Solution
A faulty PCM can manifest in numerous ways, often mimicking other sensor or component failures. If you’re experiencing any of the following, this module is the likely culprit:
- Persistent Check Engine Light (CEL) with communication-related codes (U-codes) or internal processor fault codes (P0601, P0605).
- Engine stalling, stumbling, or hesitating during acceleration.
- Harsh or erratic automatic transmission shifting.
- Complete no-start condition where the engine cranks but won’t fire.
- Poor fuel mileage and overall sluggish performance.
This pre-programmed 2000 Impala PCM 09361735 is the definitive fix. We take a tested, functional unit from a salvaged vehicle and flash it with the latest official GM software updates, specifically calibrated to your car’s unique Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).

Expert Mechanic’s Insight: On these late 90s and early 2000s GM vehicles, the PCM is the central hub for everything. It’s not just about engine function; it controls the transmission, communicates with the anti-lock brakes (ABS), and even the instrument cluster. That’s why VIN-specific programming isn’t just a convenience—it’s critical. A generic or improperly programmed module can cause a host of new, confusing problems. We handle this crucial step for you, ensuring that when you install our module, it integrates seamlessly, just like the original part did when your car was new.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do I need to do after I purchase?
After you complete your purchase, you must send us your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN. We cannot program and ship the computer without it. You can typically add this as a note during checkout or send it to us via direct message after your order.
Is any additional programming required after installation?
In most cases, you will need to perform a security relearn procedure (often called a CASE relearn or Passlock relearn). This syncs the new computer with your vehicle’s anti-theft system. It’s a simple procedure that typically involves turning the key on and off in a specific sequence and does not require special tools. Instructions can be easily found online for your specific model.
You mentioned this part is ‘used’. What does that mean for reliability?
This computer was sourced from a salvaged vehicle. However, each unit is thoroughly inspected and tested to ensure it is fully functional before being programmed and shipped. This allows us to provide a reliable, factory OEM part at an affordable price. It is backed by our one-year replacement warranty for your peace of mind.
How do I know if this part number is correct for my vehicle?
This listing is for part number 09361735. The best way to confirm is to check the part number on your existing computer. However, our comprehensive fitment list covers the models this part is compatible with. As long as your vehicle is on the list, our VIN programming will ensure it works correctly.
Will this fix my car’s specific problem?
This PCM will fix issues directly caused by a failing computer. While we cannot diagnose your vehicle remotely, the symptoms listed in our description are the most common indicators of PCM failure. We always recommend having a qualified mechanic diagnose the issue before ordering parts.
