Frequently Asked Questions
What do I need to do after I purchase?
After you complete your purchase, you must send us your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN (Vehicle Identification Number). We cannot program and ship your ECM without it. You can typically add this as a note during checkout or send it to us in a message referencing your order number.
Is this really plug-and-play?
Yes. Because we program the module to your specific VIN, it is ready for installation upon arrival. In most cases, no further programming is needed. Some vehicles may require a simple security relearn procedure, which can be done without special tools and typically takes about 30 minutes. Instructions are readily available online for this process.
Where is the ECM located on my 2008 Enclave?
On the 2008 Buick Enclave, the Engine Control Module is typically located behind the fan shroud in the engine compartment. Always disconnect the battery before attempting to remove or install the module.

This Programmed 2008 Buick Enclave ECM is designed to resolve issues directly caused by a faulty control module, such as internal processor errors (e.g., DTC P0606) and communication failures.
