Get Your H3 Back on the Road and Trail
Is your Hummer H3 suddenly stalling, refusing to start, or throwing a confusing array of check engine lights? A failing Powertrain Control Module (PCM) can bring your rugged truck to a dead stop, causing immense frustration. You rely on your H3 for its capability and dependability, and a faulty computer undermines that completely. This is the definitive solution to restore your truck’s performance and your confidence in it. We provide a professionally programmed 2006 Hummer H3 PCM that is flashed with the latest GM factory updates, tailored specifically to your vehicle’s VIN for a true plug-and-drive repair.
Common H3 PCM Failure Symptoms & Your Solution
A failing ECM can manifest in various ways, often mimicking other component failures. If you’re experiencing any of the following, a bad PCM is a likely culprit:
- No-Start Condition: The engine cranks but will not start, or starts and immediately stalls.
- Erratic Engine Behavior: Unexplained stalling at idle, rough running, or significant loss of power.
- Check Engine Light: Persistent Check Engine Light with communication-related Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) such as U0100, or various processor fault codes.
- Poor Fuel Economy: A sudden and unexplained drop in your vehicle’s MPG.
- Transmission Issues: Harsh shifting, failure to shift, or getting stuck in a single gear.
This unit is your direct-fit, reliable solution. By ordering our pre-programmed 2006 Hummer H3 PCM, you bypass the expensive and time-consuming process of having a new module programmed at a dealership.

An Expert’s Note on H3 Electronics
The HUMMER H3, while tough, has a surprisingly complex electronics system that integrates the engine, 4×4 transfer case, and security features. Unlike a generic part, a module programmed specifically to your VIN is critical. It ensures the Vehicle Anti-Theft System (VATS) communicates correctly and that the transfer case control module receives the right signals for proper 4-high and 4-low operation. We’ve seen countless issues arise from using improperly programmed modules. This unit guarantees all systems integrate just as the factory intended.
Don’t let a bad computer keep your adventure on hold. This is the most reliable and efficient way to solve your PCM problems and get your truck performing its best. After your purchase, we will contact you for your VIN to begin the programming process, ensuring the 2006 Hummer H3 PCM you receive is a perfect match.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to do anything after installing the PCM?
Yes, you will need to perform a simple security relearn procedure, also known as a VATS relearn. This process syncs the new computer to your vehicle’s keys and can be done without any special tools. We can provide you with easy-to-follow instructions for this 10-30 minute procedure.
How do I provide my vehicle’s VIN?
After you complete your purchase, simply reply to your order confirmation email with your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). You can find this on your vehicle’s registration, insurance card, or on the driver’s side dashboard visible through the windshield.
Is this the correct part for my truck?
This module fits the 2006 HUMMER H3 and a wide range of other GM trucks and SUVs listed in the compatibility chart. By programming the module to your specific VIN, we guarantee it will be the correct electronic match for your vehicle’s systems and options.
What makes this PCM different from a used one?
A standard used module will not work in your vehicle because it is programmed to the original donor vehicle’s VIN and security system. Our modules are professionally tested and then completely flashed with the newest GM software for YOUR vehicle, making it a true plug-and-drive solution.
What if my original part number isn’t on the list?
GM often supersedes part numbers. The numbers listed are the most common, but many others may be compatible. As long as your vehicle is a 2006 HUMMER H3, providing us with your VIN is the best way to ensure 100% compatibility.
