Bring Your C7 Corvette Back to Life
There’s nothing more frustrating than when your high-performance machine is held back by a faulty component. If your 2017 Corvette is suffering from erratic behavior, a persistent Check Engine Light, or a complete no-start condition, the Engine Control Module (ECM) is the most likely culprit. This isn’t just a replacement part; it’s the definitive solution to restore the precision and power you expect, delivered directly to you with the latest GM software already installed for your specific vehicle.
Common Symptoms & Your Solution
A failing ECM can manifest in numerous ways, turning your driving experience into a headache. If you’re noticing any of the following, it’s time to replace your engine’s brain:

Expert Insight: Why VIN Programming is Non-Negotiable
On a complex vehicle like the C7 Corvette, the ECM is the central hub, communicating with dozens of other modules—from the transmission and ABS to the instrument cluster and anti-theft system. A generic, non-programmed module simply won’t work. Our mandatory VIN programming ensures that the ECM has the correct software, calibrations, and security information to integrate perfectly, just as it would from the factory. This critical step is the key to a successful and lasting repair, preventing a cascade of communication errors and ensuring every system functions as intended. Getting a pre-programmed 2017 Corvette ECM saves you time, money, and the immense frustration of a failed installation.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is VIN programming and why do I need it?
VIN programming is the process of loading your vehicle’s specific software and calibration files onto the ECM. Every vehicle has unique settings based on its options and features. Programming with your VIN ensures the computer works perfectly with your engine, transmission, and security systems. It is essential for modern vehicles.
Do I need to do anything after installing this ECM?
Yes. Upon installation, if the vehicle does not start, you or your mechanic will need to perform a Vehicle Anti-Theft System (VATS) relearn. This procedure syncs the new ECM with your car’s security system. Other vehicle-specific relearns, like for the crankshaft position sensor, may also be required. This is a standard procedure when replacing an ECM.
How do I provide my VIN?
After you complete your purchase, you will need to send us your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). We cannot ship your order until we receive this information, as it is required for the programming service.
Is this compatible with other GM trucks and cars?
Yes, while this listing focuses on the programmed 2017 Corvette ECM, this module fits a wide range of GM vehicles including the Escalade, Sierra, Silverado, Tahoe, and CTS models. Please check the detailed fitment list in the description to confirm compatibility with your specific vehicle.
What if my original part number isn’t on the list?
The part numbers listed (12674472, 12692068, etc.) are the most common compatible units. If your part number is different, please contact us with your VIN and original part number before ordering. We can verify compatibility to ensure you receive the correct module for your vehicle.
