Is your Yukon XL running poorly, stalling, or showing a persistent Check Engine Light?
If your 2007 GMC Yukon XL 1500 is experiencing frustrating issues like rough idling, poor fuel economy, shifting problems, or a complete no-start condition, a failing Engine Control Module (ECM) is a very likely cause. This critical component is the brain of your vehicle, and when it malfunctions, it can cause a wide range of confusing and costly problems. Instead of facing an expensive trip to the dealership, you can restore your vehicle’s reliability with our precisely programmed ECM.

Expert Insight: Why VIN Programming is Non-Negotiable
As a technician with over two decades of experience, I’ve seen countless vehicle owners try to save a few dollars by installing a used ECM from a salvage yard. This almost always leads to more problems. Modern vehicles like your 2007 Yukon have complex anti-theft systems and specific calibrations tied to the VIN. A mismatched module simply won’t work—it can’t communicate with the other computers in the vehicle, leading to a no-start condition and more diagnostic headaches. Our service eliminates that risk entirely. By programming this 2007 GMC Yukon XL 1500 ECM to your specific vehicle, we deliver a part that works correctly the first time, saving you time, money, and immense frustration.
This module is a direct replacement for multiple part numbers, including 12589297, 12597121, 12603892, and 19210738. It is also compatible with a wide range of other 2007 GM vehicles listed in the fitment guide. After your purchase, simply provide us with your VIN, and we’ll handle the rest, shipping you a module that’s ready to restore your vehicle’s health.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is an ECM and what does it do?
The Engine Control Module (ECM) is your vehicle’s main computer. It controls critical functions like fuel injection, ignition timing, emissions systems, and transmission shifting to ensure the engine runs efficiently and reliably.
Is this a simple plug-and-play installation?
Yes. Because we program the module to your vehicle’s specific VIN before shipping, it is ready to be installed without any extra programming. In most cases, you will not need a scan tool or a trip to the dealer. However, some vehicles may require a security or crankshaft position relearn procedure, which can be performed by most qualified technicians.
How do I provide my VIN?
After you complete your purchase, you will receive instructions on how to send us your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN. We cannot program and ship your module until we receive this information.
Will this fix my check engine light?
If the check engine light is on due to a faulty ECM, this replacement part will solve the problem. However, it’s crucial to ensure the underlying cause of the failure (like a shorted sensor or wire) has been repaired first to prevent damage to the new module.
What if my original part number is different from 12589297?
This ECM is a direct replacement for several part numbers, including 12597121, 12603892, and 19210738. As long as your vehicle is on the compatibility list, this module will function correctly once programmed to your VIN.
How long does the programming and shipping process take?
Once we receive your VIN, the programming process typically takes 1-2 business days. After that, the module is shipped out to you via your chosen shipping method.
