Default 05 GTO New ECU
So the dealership has had my 05 GTO for 4 days now trying to relearn the new ecu and pair it to my car. They get clear to the end where it pairs the anti theft and they say mine wont go past that part. Theyve tried two different ECU's now and the same thing has happened.. Anyone have any ideas?

Are they installing a new PCM, BCM, or PIM?

Dealerships dont have that option with the GM software they use. They cant edit anything. We do alot of programming for several different dealerships on older vehicles when some parts are obsolete from GM.
