Restore Peak Performance to Your Saab 9-7X
Is your 2006 Saab 9-7X suffering from frustrating issues like a persistent Check Engine Light, erratic shifting, a rough idle, or even a no-start condition? These are classic signs of a failing Powertrain Control Module (PCM), the computer that serves as the brain of your vehicle’s engine and transmission. Don’t let a faulty module keep your unique and capable SUV off the road. This is your direct, reliable solution to restore the smooth performance and dependability you expect.
Common Symptoms of a Failing PCM & Your Direct Solution
A failing engine computer can cause a cascade of problems that are often misdiagnosed. If you’re experiencing any of the following, a faulty PCM is the likely culprit:
- Check Engine Light: Especially with communication-related Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) like P0601, P0602, P0605, or P0606.
- Engine Performance Issues: Unexplained stalling, hesitation during acceleration, poor fuel economy, and rough running.
- Transmission Problems: Harsh or delayed shifting, or the transmission getting stuck in one gear (limp mode).
- No-Start Condition: The engine cranks but refuses to start, even with a good battery and starter.
- Intermittent Problems: Issues that appear randomly and are difficult to replicate, often worsening as the engine warms up.

Expert Insight: The “Trollblazer” Advantage
The Saab 9-7X, affectionately known as the “Trollblazer,” is a special vehicle that blends unique Saab styling with a robust GM powertrain. However, this unique combination means its electronic systems are precise. Simply installing a used computer from a junkyard will result in a no-start condition due to the vehicle’s anti-theft system (Passlock/VATS). Our professional VIN programming service correctly syncs the module to your vehicle, ensuring it communicates properly and functions exactly as intended from the moment you plug it in. This is the correct way to replace the brain of your Saab.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to do any programming myself?
Absolutely not. We handle 100% of the programming before the module is shipped. This Programmed 2006 Saab 9-7X PCM will arrive ready for installation, requiring only basic hand tools and a battery disconnect.
How do I provide my vehicle’s VIN?
After you complete your purchase, you will receive clear instructions on how to send us your 17-digit VIN. We cannot ship your part until we have this information, as it’s essential for the programming process.
Is this the correct part for my vehicle?
This PCM is guaranteed to fit the 2006 Saab 9-7X equipped with the 4.2L 6-cylinder engine. It is also the correct module for a wide range of other GM trucks and SUVs from 2004-2006, including the Trailblazer, Envoy, Colorado, and Hummer H3. Please check the full fitment list in our description to confirm.
What if my original part number isn’t on the list?
The part numbers provided cover the most common original equipment modules. If your vehicle model and year are on our compatibility list, this unit will function as the correct replacement, even if your specific number varies. The VIN programming ensures it works perfectly for your application.
Will I need to perform a “CASE Relearn”?
A Crankshaft Variation (CASE) Relearn procedure may be necessary after installation to sync the new PCM with your engine’s crank sensor. While the vehicle will start and run without it, completing this simple procedure with a compatible scan tool will prevent a potential P1336 trouble code and ensure optimal engine timing. Most local repair shops can perform this service quickly.
