Doesn't it need to be flashed to your VIN with a dealer computer or similar?
 
It does need the VIN entered. If you don't have what you need to program the VIN, you can take it to a GM dealer and get your VIN programmed (I do my own but I've seen where they charge $150 to enter the new VIN). Just curious what was wrong with the original PCM?
