An Expert’s Diagnostic Tip: Over my 20 years of diagnostics, I’ve seen countless vehicle owners replace perfectly good sensors, coils, and fuel pumps, only to have the same problem return. That’s because a faulty ECM sends bad signals, making good parts behave poorly. The ECM is the conductor of the orchestra; if it’s off-beat, the whole engine performance suffers. Installing a properly programmed 2004-2006 Buick Rendezvous ECM often resolves a host of these ‘ghost’ issues at once, saving you from a frustrating and expensive cycle of parts-swapping.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to do any programming myself?
No. We handle all the programming before the part is shipped to you. We use your vehicle’s VIN to flash the module with the correct, updated GM software, so it’s ready for installation right out of the box.
How do I provide my VIN?
After you complete your purchase, you can send us a message with your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). We cannot ship your part until we receive the VIN, as the programming is specific to your vehicle.
Is this a new part?
No, this is a high-quality, tested computer that has been sourced from a salvaged vehicle. Each unit is inspected and verified to be in good working condition before being programmed and shipped.
What is a ‘security relearn’ and is it difficult?
After installation, you may need to perform a simple security relearn procedure so the vehicle’s anti-theft system recognizes the new ECM. This typically involves turning the key to the ‘ON’ position for 10-15 minutes, then off, and repeating the cycle two more times. It requires no special tools and instructions can be easily found online for your specific model.
Will this fit other vehicles?
Yes, this ECM is compatible with a range of GM vehicles from 2004-2008, including the Cadillac CTS and SRX, and Buick Allure and LaCrosse with the 3.6L engine. Please verify the part number (12592124 or a compatible service number) matches what your vehicle requires.
