An Expert’s Note on VIN Programming
As a technician with over two decades of experience, I can’t stress this enough: VIN programming is not optional, it’s essential. In modern GM trucks like your Canyon, the ECM is the central hub that communicates with the transmission, instrument cluster, and anti-theft system. Simply swapping in a used module from another truck will result in a no-start condition every time. Our service handles this critical step for you, taking the guesswork and frustration out of the repair. We’re not just selling a part; we’re delivering a complete, ready-to-install solution that saves you time and money.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this ECM truly plug-and-play?
Yes. Because we program the module to your vehicle’s specific VIN before shipping, it will integrate seamlessly with your truck’s existing systems. In most cases, you will only need to perform a simple security relearn procedure which involves cycling the key and takes about 10-30 minutes. We provide instructions for this easy process.
What information do you need from me?
We require your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) to program the ECM correctly. You can typically find your VIN on your vehicle’s 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 check engine light?
This ECM will resolve any Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) that are directly caused by a faulty internal module, such as P0601 (Internal Control Module Memory Check Sum Error). If your check engine light is on for other reasons (e.g., a bad oxygen sensor), those issues will need to be addressed separately.
Does this fit vehicles other than the GMC Canyon?
Yes, this ECM, often referred to as the E67, was used in a wide variety of GM vehicles. Please review the detailed fitment list on this page to confirm compatibility with other models like the Colorado, H3, Trailblazer, CTS, and more. The key is matching the service number and ensuring we have your VIN for correct programming.
Do I need any special tools for installation?
Basic hand tools, such as a socket set, are all that is typically required to physically replace the module. No special programming tools are needed because we handle that for you. Always remember to disconnect the battery before beginning any work on your vehicle’s electrical system.
