An Expert’s Note on VIN Programming
Back in my days turning wrenches, a simple part swap was all it took. But with vehicles from this era, the PCM is the heart of a complex network. It’s not just an engine controller; it’s tied into the anti-theft system, the transmission, and even the gauges. Simply installing a used, non-programmed module from another car is a guaranteed no-start situation. Our VIN-specific programming process ensures this new ‘brain’ communicates perfectly with every other component in your car, exactly as the factory intended. It’s the critical step that makes this a true, hassle-free repair.
Don’t let a faulty computer keep your trusted vehicle off the road. This is your opportunity to restore its performance and reliability with a component built to last.

Do I need to do any programming myself?
Absolutely not. The module will arrive at your door completely programmed to the VIN you provide. The process is designed to be plug-and-play: simply disconnect the old module, install this new one, and you’re ready to go.
Where do I provide my vehicle’s VIN?
After you complete your purchase, you will need to send us your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). You can typically add it as a note during checkout or reply to your order confirmation email. We cannot ship your part until we have this information.
My original part number is 12209614. Will this work?
Yes. This module is a direct, compatible replacement for several part numbers, including 12209614, 12202600, and 09360210. As long as your vehicle make, model, and year are on the compatibility list, this unit will function correctly.
Is this part difficult to install?
For most vehicles on the fitment list, the PCM is located in the engine compartment (often on the driver’s side near the air filter box) or under the dash. Installation typically involves disconnecting the battery, unplugging a few electrical connectors, and removing a few bolts. It’s a job that can be done by a DIYer with basic tools in under an hour.
Will this fix my specific check engine light codes?
If the diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) point to a faulty module or internal processor error, this part is the correct solution. After installing the new 2001-2002 Oldsmobile Intrigue PCM 12202600, it is essential to clear all codes with a scan tool to allow the system to reset.
