An Expert’s Note on VIN Programming
Many people are tempted to buy a used PCM from a salvage yard, only to find it doesn’t work. For this generation of GM vehicles, the PCM is a critical part of the vehicle’s security system (VATS/Passlock). A module from another vehicle will not allow the engine to start. Our professional VIN programming service correctly configures the security information, fuel injector flow rates, and other critical parameters, making the installation process as simple as swapping the part. This is the key to a successful and lasting repair for your 2006 Saab 9-7X PCM.
