Restore Your Cadillac’s Performance and Reliability
Is your 2008 or 2009 Cadillac SRX suffering from an illuminated Check Engine Light, erratic engine behavior, poor fuel economy, or a frustrating no-start condition? These are classic signs of a failing Engine Control Module (ECM), the critical brain of your vehicle’s powertrain. Don’t let a faulty computer compromise the luxury and performance you expect. This pre-programmed ECM is the direct, reliable solution to restore your SRX’s smooth operation and get you back on the road with confidence.
Common Symptoms & Your Solution
A failing ECM can cause a wide range of confusing issues. If you’re experiencing any of the following, this module is your definitive fix:
- Persistent Check Engine Light: Often with diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) like P0601, P0602, P0606, or other communication errors.
- Engine Performance Problems: Stalling, rough idling, hesitation during acceleration, or a noticeable loss of power.
- Poor Fuel Economy: The engine may run too rich or too lean, drastically reducing your MPG.
- Transmission Issues: Harsh or erratic shifting, as the ECM plays a vital role in transmission control.
- No-Start Condition: The engine cranks but won’t start, or it won’t crank at all due to a complete module failure.

An Expert’s Note on Programming: From over 20 years in diagnostics, I’ve seen countless issues arise from using generic, non-programmed modules. A ‘one-size-fits-all’ ECM can cause persistent check engine lights, transmission problems, and even damage other components. That’s why we insist on programming every single 2008-2009 Cadillac SRX ECM to the specific VIN. It’s the only way to guarantee the module communicates flawlessly with your vehicle’s other systems, just as the factory intended. This is the difference between a temporary patch and a lasting repair.
By choosing this programmed module, you are not just buying a part; you are investing in a reliable repair that restores the integrity of your vehicle’s complex electronics. Get your Cadillac running smoothly again with a solution designed for a perfect fit and function. The core of your vehicle’s performance depends on a healthy ECM, and this is the most dependable way to address a failure.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to send my old ECM in?
No, this is a direct replacement unit, not a repair service for your old part. You can purchase this ECM outright and we will ship it to you after programming.
Is this part difficult to install?
The physical installation is typically straightforward for anyone with mechanical experience. However, after installation, you or your mechanic will likely need to perform a security relearn procedure (also known as a key relearn or anti-theft relearn) to allow the vehicle to start. This procedure is standard for most GM vehicles and instructions are widely available online.
How do I provide my Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)?
After you complete your purchase, you can add your 17-digit VIN to the order notes or send it to us in a message. We cannot program and ship your 2008-2009 Cadillac SRX ECM without the correct VIN.
What if my original part number is different?
This module, ID 12614423, is the correct service replacement for several part numbers, including 12623327 and 12619582. As long as your vehicle’s year, make, model, and engine match the fitment list, we will program it with the correct software for your VIN.
Is this a brand new part?
No. To provide a cost-effective solution, this is a high-quality, tested, and fully functional ECM sourced from a salvaged vehicle. It is then professionally programmed to ensure it performs reliably.
