Re: Bit the bullet/Let me know what you think?

Did you get the pedal assembly and wiring for it?
That should be a DBW set up!
By the way sounds like a good deal,you should get a lot of miles out of it.

No pedal. They did not have one. =( got it all from LKQ. I'm very happy with my experience. This guy was very helpful Justin 469-941-3743 tell him Adam sent you he saved me about $500 bones which makes me happy. Payed for my cam that's how I look at it.

The ECM & TCM have to be "flash matched" or out of the same vehicle.
The TCM is inside the transmission, So if they are sending a "external" TCM its no good to you.

Any more details on the ECM and what its out of?

O really it is probably The one in it. I just asked if it was included. Good to know. Both out of Yukons one is 09, 10. Will it still need to be flashed?

The TCM will need a reflash, Its VIN specific. You can either......build the truck & take the whole thing to a tuner/Have the tuner come to you, Or remove the TCM & Valve body & send it off along with the ECM to get tuned/reflashed.

Re: Bit the bullet/Let me know what you think?

Would I need any DBW from the same year as the motor like any gm car or truck of the same year or more specific? Thanks for the info, specific as posibal is ok.

Also anyone have any good wiring diagrams that would like to share for this including trans wires.

Nitschke,I have a DBW pedal and harness for the pedal from a 2004. If it would work for you it's yours if you pay the freight. Ray

Re: Bit the bullet/Let me know what you think?

I have a DBW ECM and the guy that is working on my wiring told me he could set it up for a Cable drive as I can't use the DBW with a 700r4

Your running a Gen III 24X engine, Nitschke has a Gen IV 58X engine & running a 6 speed auto this really limits him on what he can do. The DBW pedal off a 04 itself may work, But I would just get the correct part.

Thats a BCM body control module, Never seen that style in a truck. Regardless....Its no good to you

Where is the ECM?
Did it come with a separate harness? The one on the engine is cut up.

The transmission is out of a 4WD/AWD truck/SUV, Is that what you wanted?

Thanks about the bcm. Yes the ECM, harness, fuse box. Are coming separate. The trans I could not fined one 2wd for a decent price. So I'll just convert this one into a 2wd.
