    A New PCM

    What is involved when replacing a failed PCM with a new one from GM ?

    Can I just install the new PCM and do a write entire with the Hptuner ?

    Thanks >>>>> INTHERED

    you license your vehicles vcm if you do a single license. Otherwise what would be to keep people from just using the same 2 credit license on every other vehicle?
    It doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to be done in two weeks...

    A wise man once said "google it"
