Is Your Envoy Running Rough, Stalling, or Throwing Codes?
Dealing with a problematic GMC Envoy can be incredibly frustrating. You rely on your SUV to be dependable, but a failing Powertrain Control Module (PCM) can turn it into a source of constant stress with issues like a persistent check engine light, poor fuel economy, or even leaving you stranded. This isn’t just an inconvenience; it’s a disruption to your daily life. You need a reliable, straightforward solution that gets you back on the road without the exorbitant costs and complexities of a dealership visit. This is the definitive fix for your vehicle’s electronic brain.
Common Symptoms of a Failing PCM & Your Solution
If you’re experiencing any of the following, a faulty engine computer is the likely culprit. This pre-programmed 2006 GMC Envoy PCM is designed to solve these exact problems:
- Erratic or harsh transmission shifting
- Engine stalling, stumbling, or rough idling
- Failure to start or intermittent starting issues
- Significant drop in fuel mileage
- Check Engine Light (CEL) with communication codes like U0100
- Internal processor fault codes like P0601, P0603, or P0606
- Apparent sensor failures even after replacing the sensors

Expert Insight: The “Brain” Behind the Brawn
As a technician, I’ve seen countless GMT360 platform vehicles (like your Envoy, Trailblazer, etc.) with mysterious issues that stump other mechanics. A common one is erratic shifting that feels like a failing transmission. Before you spend thousands on a transmission rebuild, always consider the PCM. The module controls every aspect of the shift timing and line pressure. We had a customer with a 2006 Envoy XL whose shop insisted on a new transmission. We sent him our pre-programmed 2006 GMC Envoy PCM, he installed it in under an hour, and the vehicle drove like new. It’s often the computer, not the heavy hardware, that’s causing the headache.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to do any programming myself?
No. This module is completely plug-and-play. We handle all the programming before it ships. The only thing you may need to perform is a simple security relearn procedure, which takes about 30 minutes and only requires your key.
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. We cannot ship your part until we receive this information, as it is essential for programming.
What if my original part number isn’t on the list?
The part numbers listed (12589311, 12597521, etc.) are part of a large interchangeable family. As long as your vehicle’s year, make, and model are listed in the compatibility chart, we will program the correct software for your specific vehicle based on your VIN.
Is a security or CASE relearn required after installation?
For most GM vehicles of this era, a simple security relearn is necessary to sync the new PCM with your vehicle’s anti-theft system. This is a straightforward procedure that involves turning the key to the ‘ON’ position for 10 minutes, then ‘OFF’ for 10 seconds, and repeating this cycle three times. A CASE (Crankshaft Angle Sensor Error) relearn may be needed in some cases, which requires a scan tool, but often the vehicle will run perfectly fine without it.
Will this fix my check engine light?
If the check engine light is caused by a faulty PCM (e.g., internal processor error codes), then yes, this will resolve the issue. However, if the light is on due to a separate failed sensor or mechanical problem, you will still need to address that underlying issue. This 2006 GMC Envoy PCM ensures the vehicle’s computer is no longer the source of the problem.
