From the Technician’s Bench: An Expert Insight
I once had a customer with a 2004 Pontiac Montana who was convinced their transmission was failing. It was shifting hard between first and second gear and occasionally wouldn’t shift at all. They had already spent hundreds on fluid flushes and diagnostics at another shop. The problem wasn’t mechanical at all; it was a failing driver circuit inside the original PCM. We installed a correctly programmed 2003-2005 Chevy Venture PCM 89017735, and the van drove like new. It’s a powerful reminder that the computer is the true heart of a modern vehicle’s powertrain.

No. We handle all the programming for you before shipment. Simply provide us with your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN after you place your order, and the module will arrive ready to be installed.
How do I provide my VIN number?
After you complete your purchase, you can send us a message with your VIN, or we will reach out to you to request it. We cannot ship your part until we have this information to program it correctly.
Is this the correct part for my car if it’s not a Chevy Venture?
Yes, this PCM fits a wide variety of GM vehicles from 2003-2005. Please carefully review the detailed fitment list on this page. As long as your vehicle and original part number (such as 12583827 or 12583826) are listed, this is the correct part.
Will I need to perform a CASE Relearn procedure?
In some cases, a Crankshaft Variation Relearn (also known as CASE Relearn) may be necessary after installation to prevent a P0315 trouble code. This is a simple procedure that can be completed by most repair shops with a capable scan tool.
What if I install it and still have problems?
