Frequently Asked Questions
How do I provide my VIN for programming?
After you complete your purchase, you will need to send us your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). We cannot ship your part until we have this information to program the module correctly.
Will I need to do any additional programming after installation?
No, the core engine programming is complete. However, on many GM vehicles, you may need to perform a simple security relearn procedure (also known as a CASE relearn or anti-theft relearn) which can typically be done without special tools. This syncs the new ECM with your vehicle’s anti-theft system.
Is this a new part?
This is a high-quality, tested, and fully functional used part that was recovered from a salvaged vehicle. It offers the performance and durability of an original factory component at a significant savings.
What if my original part number is not 12655007?
This module is a direct, compatible replacement for several part numbers, including 12653998, 12633555, and 12644446. As long as your vehicle is listed in the compatibility chart, this programmed 2013-2016 Equinox ECM 12655007 will function correctly.
What does the warranty cover?
This part is covered by a one-year replacement warranty. In the unlikely event of a failure within one year of the purchase date, we will provide a replacement unit.
