An Expert’s Note on Programming
As a technician, I’ve seen countless drivers try to save a few dollars with a generic, un-programmed ECM from a junkyard. The result is almost always more problems. The vehicle’s anti-theft system engages, the transmission shifts erratically, or it simply won’t start. That’s because the ECM is the ‘brain’ and must be matched to the ‘body’ (your car’s VIN). Our service eliminates that entire headache. By programming the 2004-2005 Malibu ECM 19210073 before it ever leaves our facility, we ensure it’s a seamless, successful repair right out of the box.
