Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to have this computer programmed by a dealer?
No. This PCM arrives at your door fully pre-programmed to your vehicle’s specific VIN. It is ready for installation right out of the box, saving you time and the high cost of dealership programming.
What information do you need from me?
After you complete your purchase, we will need the 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) from your 2002 GMC Envoy. You can typically find this on your vehicle’s dashboard (visible through the windshield), on the driver’s side door jamb sticker, or on your registration and insurance documents.
Is this a difficult part to install?
For someone with basic mechanical skills, the installation is straightforward. The PCM is located in the engine bay on the driver’s side. It involves disconnecting the battery, unplugging the electrical connectors, and unbolting the module. While the unit is plug-and-play, some vehicles may require a simple security relearn procedure, which can be done without special tools and instructions can easily be found online.
How do I know for sure that my PCM is the problem?
Common signs include a check engine light with communication-related error codes (like P0601), a no-start condition where the engine cranks but won’t fire, and multiple unrelated sensor codes appearing at once. While these are strong indicators, we always recommend a proper diagnosis by a qualified mechanic to confirm the PCM is the point of failure before ordering a new 2002 GMC Envoy PCM.
Will this fit vehicles other than the 2002 Envoy?
Yes, this electronic control module is also a direct fit for the 2002 Oldsmobile Bravada, Chevrolet Trailblazer, Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT, and GMC Envoy XL, provided they have the engine located on the left-hand (driver’s) side.
