Frequently Asked Questions
What do I need to do after I purchase?
After you place your order, you must provide us with your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN (Vehicle Identification Number). We cannot program and ship your module without it. You can typically add the VIN in the notes section during checkout or send it to us in a message referencing your order number.
Is this really a plug-and-play part?
Yes. Because we program the computer to your specific VIN, it will be ready for installation upon arrival. In most cases, no additional security relearn procedures or programming are required. Simply disconnect the battery, swap the modules, and reconnect the battery.
Do I need to send my old computer back?
No, there is no core charge or requirement to return your original module. You can keep it or dispose of it as you see fit.
Will this fix my specific problem?
This module will correct any issues directly caused by a failing PCM. While the symptoms listed above are very common for PCM failure, we always recommend having a proper diagnosis performed by a qualified mechanic to rule out other potential issues like wiring or sensor faults.
How does the one-year warranty work?
Our warranty is straightforward. If the module fails within one year of the purchase date, we will provide a replacement unit. The warranty covers the part itself.
Will this also fit a Chevy Trailblazer or GMC Envoy?
Yes, this engine computer is compatible with a wide range of 2006 GM models equipped with the 4.2L engine, including the Trailblazer, Envoy, Buick Rainier, and Isuzu Ascender, as well as some 2004-2006 Colorado and Canyon models.
