Get Your Vehicle Back on the Road, Fast.
Is your GM vehicle suffering from frustrating and intermittent issues like stalling, a persistent check engine light, or a complete no-start condition? These are classic signs of a failing Engine Control Module (ECM), the central computer of your vehicle. Don’t let a faulty module keep you sidelined. This direct-replacement ECM is the reliable, professional-grade solution to restore your vehicle’s performance and get you back behind the wheel with confidence. We take the guesswork and hassle out of the repair by programming this unit specifically to your vehicle’s VIN before it ships.
Common Symptoms & Your Solution
A failing ECM can cause a wide range of problems that can be difficult to diagnose. If you’re experiencing any of the following, this module is your definitive solution:
- No-Start or Hard-Starting: The engine cranks but refuses to start, or takes an excessive amount of time to turn over.
- Check Engine Light (CEL): Often accompanied by communication error codes (U-codes) or multiple, unrelated sensor codes (P-codes).
- Poor Performance & Fuel Economy: Noticeable loss of power, rough idling, hesitation during acceleration, and a sudden drop in MPG.
- Erratic Shifting or Stalling: The transmission may shift harshly, or the engine may stall unexpectedly while driving or at a stop.
This Programmed 22819494 ECM is the answer to these critical issues, providing a stable and reliable command center for your engine’s operations.

Expert Insight: The Importance of a Programmed Module
Twenty years ago, you could often swap a computer from one truck to another. Today, that’s impossible. The ECM is the digital heart of your vehicle, intricately linked to the anti-theft system (immobilizer), transmission, ABS, and more. Installing an un-programmed module will result in a no-start condition every time. Our professional programming service bridges this critical gap, ensuring all vehicle systems recognize and communicate with the new ECM correctly from the moment of installation. This Programmed 22819494 ECM isn’t just a part; it’s a complete, integrated solution.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the programming process work?
It’s simple. After you complete your purchase, you will need to send us your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN (Vehicle Identification Number). Our technicians will then use this VIN to load the correct, updated software from GM onto the module before we ship it to you.
Will I need to do anything after installation?
In many cases, the vehicle will start and run perfectly after installation. However, some GM vehicles may require a simple security relearn procedure (often called a Passlock or anti-theft relearn) to sync the new ECM with your keys. This procedure can typically be done without special tools and instructions can be readily found online for your specific model.
How can I be sure my ECM is the problem?
While the symptoms listed above are strong indicators, a definitive diagnosis from a qualified mechanic is always recommended. Common diagnostic trouble codes pointing to a faulty ECM include communication errors (like U0100) or multiple, inconsistent sensor circuit faults.
Is this the correct part for my vehicle?
This module replaces several part numbers. Please review the detailed fitment list on this page and compare one of the listed part numbers to the one on your current module to ensure compatibility. If you’re unsure, please contact us with your VIN.
What information do you need from me?
All we need is your vehicle’s VIN to complete the programming. Please provide it in the notes at checkout or send it to us in a message after your purchase to ensure there are no delays in shipping your order.
