Restore Your Minivan’s Reliability and Performance

We take the guesswork out of the repair by flashing the module with the latest GM software updates, specifically coded to your vehicle’s VIN before it ever leaves our facility.

An Expert’s Note: After 20 years of diagnostics, I’ve seen countless families stressed by a dead minivan. A common mistake is buying a used ECM from a junkyard, only to find the vehicle won’t start because the anti-theft system (VATS/Passlock) hasn’t been synced. It becomes a paperweight. Our service completely eliminates that problem. By programming the 2006 Chevy Uplander ECM to your VIN beforehand, we ensure it communicates with your vehicle’s security system perfectly, saving you from a costly and frustrating tow to the dealer.
