PCM Question

[ViperPete]

Hey all,

I am on collecting parts for a 6-speed swap in my 2005 QC. What i'd like to confirm is that if I swap my automatic PCM with that of a 2005 RC PCM- will the truck run with no issues?

Thanks

I haven't personally done a swap, but from what I understand you just need an SCT with RC tunes loaded onto your existing PCM.

From what I understand you are right.:rock:

The reason I am asking is because I can swap my current PCM for a RC PCM...

Yessir, that's us how mine is. I tried the QC but Torrie couldn't get all tranny related DTC codes deleted so I went to a RC PCM. Of course it'll need to be vin flashed by dealer.

Whats does VIN flashing mean?

You have to have the trucks vin number put in the pcm,the dealer can do it,or B&G can.

Do I just bring them the PCM or does it have to be plugged into the truck for them to do it?

The reason I'm asking this stuff is because I want to do the swap in one day or weekend.

They can do it off the truck.

The dealer can't do it off the truck, ask me how I know.......

My bad I thought the dealer has the same equipment as B&G or D.C. performance.

Unfortunately no, we suck!

Yes it has to be hooked up to have vin swapped in.

Do they charge a lot of money to do that? What else do they change? Just the VIN?
