Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to do any additional programming after installation?
No, this PCM arrives fully programmed to your VIN and is ready for installation. In some cases, a security relearn procedure (often called a CASE relearn) may be required, which is a simple process that can be performed by most automotive shops to ensure perfect communication with your vehicle’s anti-theft system.
How do I provide my vehicle’s VIN?
After you complete your purchase, you can add your VIN to the ‘notes’ section of your order. If you forget, we will contact you via email to request it before programming and shipping your module. We cannot ship the part without your VIN.
Is this the correct part for my car?
This module is compatible with a range of 2003-2004 GM models including the LeSabre, Park Avenue, Impala, Monte Carlo, and Grand Prix equipped with the 3.8L engine. Please verify that your original module has the service number 12583826 or 89017735 to ensure a perfect match. Providing your VIN is the best way to guarantee compatibility.
What makes this better than a used part from a salvage yard?
A salvage yard part has an unknown history and will not be programmed for your specific vehicle, leading to immediate running issues or failure. Our module is thoroughly inspected, cleaned, and professionally programmed with the newest GM software updates for your exact VIN, ensuring reliability and proper function from the moment you install it.
Does this part require a ‘core’ return?
No core return is required for this purchase. You can keep or dispose of your old module at your convenience, simplifying the repair process for you.
