Frequently Asked Questions
How do I provide my vehicle’s VIN?
After you complete your purchase, you will receive instructions on how to send us your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). We must have your VIN to program the module before we can ship it.
Is this installation truly plug-and-play?
Yes, the module comes programmed and ready to be installed. Once you swap the part, you may need to perform a security relearn procedure, which is a simple process that can be done without special tools. Instructions are readily available online or in service manuals for your specific model.
Will this fix my specific check engine light codes?
This ECM is a common solution for a wide range of diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) related to internal module failure, communication errors (U-codes), and sensor reference voltage issues. While it fixes the root cause of many problems, you should ensure your vehicle’s wiring and sensors are in good condition.
Where is this ECM located on the truck?
The Engine Control Module on 2004-2005 Sierra and Silverado HD trucks is located on the driver’s side of the engine bay, mounted under the battery tray.
What happens if I install it without having it programmed?
An unprogrammed module will not work. The vehicle will not start or run correctly because the ECM lacks the specific software and security information required to communicate with the other modules in your truck. Our VIN programming service is essential.
