An Expert’s Note on Programming: Many people buy a used PCM from a salvage yard hoping for a cheap fix, only to find it won’t work. That’s because the module is still programmed for the donor vehicle’s VIN and options. Our process is different. We take your exact VIN and flash the module so it’s a perfect digital handshake with your 2004 Isuzu Ascender. This crucial step ensures all systemsโ€”from the anti-theft (Passlock/VATS) to the transmissionโ€”communicate correctly from the moment you turn the key.

This module is also a direct replacement for the following part numbers: 19299226, 89017738, YFKD, YFKF, YFKH, YFKJ, YFKX, YFXL, YFXM, YFXN, YFXP, YHTN. It fits a wide variety of 2004 GM trucks and SUVs, including the Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Buick Rainier, and many more. Ordering the correct 2004 Isuzu Ascender PCM 12586242 is the first step to a lasting repair.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the VIN programming process work?

After you place your order, you will need to provide us with your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN. Our technicians use this number to access the latest official GM software calibrations for your specific make, model, and engine. We then flash this software onto the PCM before shipping it to you.

Is this a difficult part to install?

The physical installation is typically straightforward, involving disconnecting the battery, unplugging the electrical connectors, and unbolting the old module. However, after installation, you will need to perform a security relearn procedure (often called a VATS or Passlock relearn) to sync the new PCM with your vehicle’s anti-theft system. This procedure can usually be done without special tools and instructions are widely available online.

How do I confirm this is the right part for my truck?

The best way is to check the service number on your current PCM. It will be on a sticker on the module itself. If it matches 12586242 or any of the other service numbers listed in the description, this is the correct part for your vehicle.

Will this fix my specific check engine light codes?

This PCM resolves issues related to the module itself, including many communication codes (U-codes) and internal processor fault codes (P06xx series). While it can resolve codes caused by incorrect computer outputs, it’s crucial to ensure that the codes are not being caused by a faulty sensor or wiring issue elsewhere in the vehicle.

What information do you need from me to complete the order?

We only need your complete 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). You can typically find this on your driver’s side dashboard (visible through the windshield), on the driver’s side door jamb sticker, or on your vehicle’s registration and insurance documents.
