Is Your SUV Running Rough? Get Back in Command.
There’s nothing more frustrating than a vehicle you can’t rely on. If your GMC Envoy, Chevy Trailblazer, or other GM SUV is suffering from erratic shifting, a persistent check engine light, stalling, or a complete no-start condition, a failing Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is the most likely culprit. This isn’t just an inconvenience; it’s a critical failure that compromises your vehicle’s performance, fuel economy, and safety. This replacement module is the definitive, hassle-free solution to restore your vehicle’s brain and get you back on the road with confidence.

- Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) related to internal module failure (e.g., P0601, P0606)
- Poor fuel economy
- Engine stalling, stumbling, or rough idling
- Harsh or unpredictable transmission shifting
- No communication with the PCM via a scan tool
- Vehicle won’t start, but the battery and starter are good

Expert Insight: The GM Passlock Security System
Many DIY mechanics and even some shops run into a brick wall after installing a generic, non-programmed PCM in these GM SUVs: the engine cranks but won’t start. This is almost always due to the Passlock anti-theft system. The PCM, Body Control Module (BCM), and ignition key must all be in sync. Our VIN-programming process ensures this security handshake is correctly configured before we ship the part. This critical step, often overlooked, is the key to a successful, plug-and-play repair, saving you hours of troubleshooting and the potential need for specialized diagnostic tools.
Don’t let a bad computer keep your dependable SUV sidelined. By providing us with your VIN upon purchase, you are ensuring a perfect match and a straightforward repair. This is the most reliable and efficient way to fix your vehicle correctly the first time. Take control of your repair with a professionally programmed 2003-2005 Envoy PCM 12577955 and get back to driving with peace of mind.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is VIN programming and why is it required?
VIN programming is the process of loading your vehicle’s specific software and security information onto the PCM. Every vehicle has unique settings for its engine, transmission, and options. This step ensures the new computer works perfectly with all other systems in your vehicle, especially the anti-theft system, without any additional work needed after installation.
Where do I find my vehicle’s VIN?
Your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) can be found in several places: on a metal plate on the driver’s side dashboard (visible through the windshield), on the driver’s side door jamb sticker, and on your vehicle’s registration and insurance documents.
Is this a difficult part to replace?
For someone with basic mechanical skills, replacing the PCM on these vehicles is straightforward. It’s typically located in the engine bay, involves disconnecting the battery, unplugging a few electrical connectors, and unbolting the module. Because our unit comes pre-programmed, there are no complicated computer steps required after installation.
Will this fix my check engine light?
If the check engine light is caused by an internal failure of the original PCM (verified by codes like P0601), then yes, this part will resolve the issue. It’s always recommended to have a proper diagnosis to confirm the PCM is the root cause before ordering.
Does this part fit my 2006 Saab 9-7X?
Yes, this module is compatible with several 2005-2006 Saab 9-7X models equipped with the 4.2L 6-cylinder engine. It directly replaces multiple original Saab part numbers, as listed in the compatibility chart. We will use your VIN to confirm the exact software needed for your specific vehicle.
