I'm having problems with my trans temp reading wrong. So I have a spare PCM that I wanna try, but I don't know exactly how to go about changing the vin on the spare PCM to match my truck. I know how to get to the spot on hptuners.

So the question is:
Is changing the vin as simple as add in the to the truck & doing a security relearn?

 

Ok I licensed the new PCM & when I go to change vin it says: vehicle validation failed. Unlicensed vehicle.

Anyone wanna help me out?

 

We clone PCM's so the VIN, the VCM ID, and the OSID match and will not cost you additional credits

 

^^^ care to shed a little light on how to do that for us beginner tuners?

 

We disassamble the PCM/ECM and burn the chip in an off board burnner and then reinstall the chip

 

bet you weren't expecting that answer huh?

 

I was able to figure it out.. Didn't fix my problem sooooo..

 

Hell nah i wasnt

 

We can change the VIN with TunerCat, but the VCM ID won't match and that would cost you a credit. You have purchased the additional credit for the ECM correct?
If so owe can burn in the correct VIN and OSID to match the original ECM without pulling the ECM a part

 

Do you need both PCM's in person in order to do the clone process???
