Frequently Asked Questions
How does the programming process work?
It’s simple. After you complete your purchase, you will need to provide us with your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN. Our technicians will then program the module with the latest GM software specific to your truck before shipping it to you.
Is this a true plug-and-play installation?
Yes, because the unit arrives pre-programmed, it eliminates the need for dealer-level tools. You simply install it, and in most cases, the truck is ready to go. Some vehicles may require a simple security relearn procedure, which can be done without special tools.
Will this fix my transmission codes like P0700?
A P0700 is a generic code indicating the TCM has detected a fault. While a failing 2001-2005 Silverado Sierra Allison TCM is a very common cause, you should scan for more specific codes (like P07XX or U-series codes) to confirm the diagnosis. This part is designed to fix faults originating within the module itself.
What information do you need from me?
All we need is the 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) from your truck’s dashboard or driver’s side door jamb sticker. This ensures we load the exact correct software for your vehicle’s configuration.
How do I know for sure that my TCM has failed?
Common signs include the transmission being stuck in limp mode (usually 3rd gear), no communication with a scan tool, erratic shifting that doesn’t correspond to a mechanical failure, and specific diagnostic trouble codes pointing to the TCM’s internal circuitry.
Will this fit my truck?
This module is a guaranteed fit for 2001-2005 Chevrolet Silverado 2500/3500 and GMC Sierra 2500/3500 pickups equipped with the 5-speed Allison automatic transmission (GM option code M74).
