An Expert’s Note on VIN Programming: Many people don’t realize that a PCM is more than just a part; it’s the central command center of your vehicle. Simply installing a used, unprogrammed module from another vehicle can cause a host of new problems, from immobilizer lockouts (GM’s Passlock system) to transmission damage. Our VIN-specific programming ensures the PCM communicates perfectly with your vehicle’s security system, transmission controller, and all other modules, just as it did from the factory. This attention to detail is what separates a quick fix from a long-term, reliable repair.
Don’t let a faulty computer keep your reliable GM truck or SUV off the road. This Programmed 2006 Buick Rainier PCM is the most efficient and cost-effective way to solve complex electronic issues and restore the dependable performance you expect. By matching this unit specifically to your VIN, we provide a seamless repair experience that gets you back to driving with confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to do any programming after I receive this part?
No. This module comes fully programmed to your vehicle’s VIN. In most cases, it is a simple plug-and-drive installation. Some vehicles may require a simple security relearn procedure, which takes a few minutes and does not require any special tools. We include instructions for this common procedure.
Where do I provide my VIN?
After you complete your purchase, you will receive instructions on how to send us your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN (Vehicle Identification Number). We cannot ship your part until we receive this information, as it is essential for the programming process.
Is this a brand new part?
This is a genuine, fully tested OEM unit that has been meticulously inspected and prepared to meet or exceed original factory specifications. It is programmed with the latest software to ensure optimal performance and reliability.
Will this fix my specific problem?
This PCM will correct any issues directly caused by a faulty engine computer. While the symptoms listed are common indicators of PCM failure, we always recommend that a proper diagnosis is performed by a qualified mechanic to confirm the PCM is the root cause of your problem before ordering.
What is the difference between a PCM, ECM, and ECU?
The terms are often used interchangeably. PCM (Powertrain Control Module) typically controls both the engine and transmission. ECM (Engine Control Module) or ECU (Engine Control Unit) usually refers to a module that controls only the engine. For your vehicle, this unit serves as the PCM.
What if I have an issue after installation?
Your purchase is protected. This unit is backed by our one-year replacement warranty. If you encounter any problems with the module itself, please contact us and our support team will be happy to assist you with the warranty process.
