Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to send you my old ECM?
No, there is no need to send us your original module. This is a direct replacement unit that we program and ship to you, saving you downtime.
What information do you need from me after I order?
After you place your order, simply provide us with your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN (Vehicle Identification Number). We handle all the programming from there.
Is any additional programming required after installation?
Once installed, you will only need to perform a simple security relearn procedure (also known as a key relearn). This synchronizes the new ECM with your vehicle’s anti-theft system and can typically be done without special tools. Instructions are readily available online or in service manuals.
How do I find my VIN?
Your VIN can be found on a metal plate on the driver’s side of the dashboard (visible through the windshield), on the driver’s side door jamb sticker, or on your vehicle’s registration and insurance documents.
Will this fix my specific problem?
While this Programmed 2008 Cadillac DTS Engine Control Module is the solution for internal computer failures (like code P0601), it’s essential that your vehicle has been properly diagnosed. This part will not fix issues related to faulty sensors, wiring, or other mechanical components.
Is this compatible with other GM vehicles?
Yes. This ECM, identified by service number 19210737, is interchangeable with several other part numbers and fits a wide range of GM models. Please check the compatibility list or contact us with your vehicle information to confirm it’s the correct part for your car.
