Common Symptoms & Your Direct-Fit Solution
A failing engine computer can manifest in numerous ways. If you’re experiencing any of the following, a faulty PCM is the likely culprit:
- Persistent Check Engine Light (CEL) with communication error codes like P0601, P0602, or P0606.
- Vehicle refuses to start or has intermittent starting problems.
- Harsh or erratic automatic transmission shifting.
- Noticeable decrease in fuel economy.
- Stalling, rough idling, or engine misfires.
- Failure to pass state emissions testing.
This module is the definitive fix for these issues. By ordering our pre-programmed 2003-2004 Bravada PCM, you are getting a reliable component that integrates seamlessly with your vehicle’s systems, just like the original.

An Expert’s Note on VIN Programming: In vehicles from this era, the PCM is more than just an engine controller—it’s the central hub of communication. It talks to the transmission, the anti-theft system (Passlock/VATS), the instrument cluster, and more. Simply swapping a used computer from another vehicle will almost always result in a no-start condition. Our VIN programming service isn’t just a convenience; it’s a critical step that ensures all vehicle systems recognize the new module and function together correctly, saving you hours of troubleshooting and frustration.
Don’t let a bad computer keep your reliable SUV off the road. This is the most efficient and effective way to solve complex electronic issues and restore your vehicle’s dependability. With a properly programmed 2003-2004 Bravada PCM, you’re not just buying a part; you’re buying peace of mind.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to do any programming myself?
No. This PCM arrives pre-programmed to the VIN you provide. In most cases, you will only need to perform a simple Security Relearn procedure, which can be done without any special tools. We include instructions for this. Some vehicles may also require a Crankshaft Variation Relearn (CASE Relearn), which needs a capable scan tool.
Where do I provide my VIN?
After you complete your purchase, you will need to send us your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). We will reach out with instructions on how to provide it. We cannot ship your part until we have this information.
What is a CASE Relearn?
A CASE (Crankshaft Angle Sensor Error) Relearn is a procedure that allows the new PCM to learn the specific position of your engine’s crankshaft. If not performed, you may have a check engine light with code P1336. This procedure must be done with a bi-directional scan tool and is often required after PCM replacement.
Is this compatible with my Trailblazer or Envoy?
Yes. This PCM fits a wide range of 2003-2006 GM SUVs with the 4.2L inline-6 engine, including the Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Buick Rainier, Isuzu Ascender, and Saab 9-7X. Please check the detailed fitment list on this page to confirm compatibility with your specific model and year.
How can I be sure my old PCM is the problem?
While the symptoms listed are very common for PCM failure, it’s always best to have a professional diagnosis performed. A qualified technician can rule out other potential causes, such as wiring issues or faulty sensors, ensuring you are replacing the correct part. A proper diagnosis is the best way to guarantee a successful repair.
