Frequently Asked Questions
What do I need to do after I place my order?
After you complete your purchase, you must provide us with your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN. 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.
Will I need to do any programming after installation?
While we handle the main engine programming, you or your mechanic will need to perform a Security Relearn procedure (also known as a vehicle theft deterrent relearn) upon installation. This is a standard security step for most GM vehicles and requires a compatible scan tool with access to GM’s programming system (tis2web). Other vehicle-specific relearns, like for injectors or the crankshaft position sensor, may also be necessary.
Is this a brand new ECM?
No, this is a fully functional, tested computer that has been sourced from a salvaged vehicle. This allows us to provide a reliable, factory-original part at an excellent value.
How can I be sure this fits my truck?
This module is a direct replacement for service number 12662677. It fits the 2016 model year GM trucks and vans listed in the compatibility chart with the 6.6L Duramax diesel engine. Providing your VIN during checkout allows us to double-check and ensure we program it for your exact vehicle configuration.
What if my truck doesn’t start after I install the ECM?
If the vehicle does not start, the most common reason is that the vehicle theft deterrent relearn has not been successfully completed. This security procedure is mandatory and syncs the new ECM to your truck’s anti-theft system. This is the responsibility of the installer.
What does “VIN-programmed” actually mean?
It means we use specialized equipment to load your truck’s unique Vehicle Identification Number and the correct GM factory software onto the ECM. This makes the computer recognize it belongs in your truck, ensuring all systems from the engine to the transmission operate according to factory specifications.
