Is your 2010-2011 SAAB 9-5 suffering from perplexing issues like stalling, erratic idling, a persistent check engine light, or a complete no-start condition? The Engine Control Module (ECM), the vehicle’s central computer, is often the source of these frustrating problems. When it fails, it can disrupt everything from fuel delivery and ignition timing to transmission shifting. This isn’t just an inconvenience; it’s a critical component failure that compromises your vehicle’s reliability and performance.

We offer a dependable and straightforward solution: a replacement Engine Control Module, part number 12630908, that arrives at your door fully programmed for your specific vehicle. Before we ship, our technicians use the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) you provide to flash the module with the latest GM-certified software. This critical service means you can bypass expensive dealership programming fees and lengthy service appointments. You’re getting a direct-fit component that is ready for installation right out of the box, restoring your SAAB’s factory performance and efficiency.

A Technician’s Notebook

I remember a 2011 Buick Regal (which uses a similar GM E39 ECM) that came into the shop with a ghost of a problem. The owner complained of random stalling at traffic lights, but by the time the tow truck arrived, it would start right up. There were no consistent trouble codes, just a history of U0100 (Lost Communication with ECM) and P0606 (ECM Processor Fault). After checking all the wiring and grounds, we focused on the ECM. Heat soak was causing an internal processor failure. Swapping in a pre-programmed ECM like this one solved the issue instantly. These intermittent faults are a classic sign of a failing computer, and a reliable replacement is the only true fix.

Is Your Vehicle Showing These Symptoms?

  • âś” Unexplained check engine light illumination
  • âś” Engine stalling or shutting off while driving
  • âś” No-start or hard-starting conditions
  • âś” Poor engine performance and reduced fuel economy
  • âś” Harsh or incorrect automatic transmission shifting
  • âś” Communication error codes stored, such as P0601, P0606, or U0100
  • âś” Apparent failure of other sensors that test as good

A Straightforward Guide to Installation

  1. âś” Safety First: Always disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery before beginning any electrical work.
  2. âś” Locate the ECM: On the 2010-2011 SAAB 9-5, the ECM is typically found in the engine compartment. Consult your vehicle’s service manual for the exact location.
  3. âś” Disconnect Connectors: Carefully release the locking tabs on the wiring harness connectors and pull them straight out from the module. Do not force them.
  4. âś” Remove the Old Module: Unbolt the old ECM from its mounting bracket. Keep the mounting hardware as you will need it for the new unit.
  5. âś” Install the New Module: Mount the new, pre-programmed ECM onto the bracket and secure it with the original hardware.
  6. âś” Reconnect and Secure: Plug the wiring harnesses firmly into the new module until they click into place. Reconnect the negative battery terminal.
  7. âś” Final Steps: Some vehicles may require a security relearn procedure or crankshaft position sensor relearn, which can often be done without special tools. Check your service manual for any vehicle-specific procedures after ECM replacement.
