? about falshing PCM Is it possible to flash a used PCM and use a new/different VIN? Don't know if I worded this correctly but hope someone understands, thanks.

if you know someone at a gm service department maybe. even then, i don't know how you would change the vin. who cares about the vin anyway? are you trying to sell the car/truck?

I sent my PCM back to Ed and had him unlock it then I took it to a GM dealership and had them flash it back to stock. Give Ed a call and see if he won't do that for you, I know it costs but I can't remember how much. He might even be able to flash it back to stock, I didn't ask.

We tried flashing it back to stock and it didn't work. I'm able to get my hands on a used PCM for $25 and wanted to know if I could put my VIN on it so I can finally get tuned.
