Is Your GM Truck or Van Running Rough?
There’s nothing more frustrating than a vehicle you can’t rely on. If your 2001-2002 GM truck, van, or SUV is suffering from mysterious electrical issues, poor performance, a no-start condition, or an illuminated Check Engine Light, a failing Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is often the culprit. Don’t let a faulty computer keep you off the road or the job site. This pre-programmed engine computer is the straightforward, reliable solution to get your vehicle running like new again.
Common Symptoms & Your Solution
A failing PCM can cause a wide range of confusing problems. You might be experiencing erratic shifting, stalling, poor fuel economy, or have diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) that won’t go away, such as P0601, P0602, P0604, or P0606. This unit is the definitive fix. We take the guesswork out of the repair by flashing this module with the latest official GM software updates, programmed specifically to your vehicle’s unique Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). This ensures perfect communication between your engine, transmission, and all related systems, restoring the performance and dependability you count on.

An Expert’s Tip: Before installing your new 12200411 PCM, take a moment to inspect and clean your vehicle’s main battery cables and engine ground straps. A poor ground connection is a common cause of PCM failure and can damage the new unit. Ensuring these connections are clean and tight is a simple step that protects your investment and ensures a lasting repair. After installation, your vehicle may require a security relearn procedure (often called a CASE learn), which can typically be done without special tools. This syncs the new computer with your vehicle’s anti-theft system.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I provide my VIN number?
After you complete your purchase, you will need to send us your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN. We cannot ship your part until we receive this information, as the programming is specific to your vehicle.
Is this a simple plug-and-play installation?
Yes, for most vehicles. Because we program the 12200411 PCM to your VIN, it is designed to be a direct installation. In some cases, a simple, non-tool “security relearn” or “CASE learn” procedure may be required to sync the new module with your vehicle’s anti-theft and crankshaft position sensor systems. Instructions for this are widely available online or in service manuals.
Will this fix my specific problem or check engine light code?
This module is the correct solution for failures internal to the computer itself, which often cause codes like P0601 (Internal Control Module Memory Check Sum Error). While it resolves a vast number of issues, it’s crucial to ensure your vehicle’s wiring and sensors are in good condition. Proper diagnosis is key to a successful repair.
