Frequently Asked Questions
What is a PCM and what does it do?
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is the central computer of your vehicle. It controls all aspects of the engine and transmission, including fuel injection, ignition timing, emissions systems, and shift points, to ensure peak performance and efficiency.
Why do you need my VIN?
Your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is essential. It allows us to access the exact factory software and calibration files for your specific vehicle, including its engine, transmission, and options. This ensures the programmed 2007-2008 Saab 9-7X PCM we send you is a perfect match.
Is any additional programming needed after installation?
In over 95% of cases, no further action is required. This is a plug-and-play solution. However, some vehicles may require a simple security relearn procedure (often called a CASE relearn or anti-theft relearn), which can typically be done without special tools. Instructions can be easily found online or in your vehicle’s service manual.
How do I provide my VIN?
After you complete your purchase, simply send us a message with your 17-digit VIN. We cannot ship your order until we receive this information, as the programming is the most critical step of the process.
Is this part compatible with other vehicles?
Yes. While this is the correct programmed 2007-2008 Saab 9-7X PCM, part number 12602010 / 19210067 also fits many other GM models like the Isuzu Ascender, GMC Envoy, Chevy Trailblazer, Hummer H3, and more. Please check the detailed fitment list in our description to confirm compatibility.
