Description
Part Description
This used OEM engine control module (ECM) was removed from a 2010 Toyota Highlander equipped with the 3.5L V6 2GR-FE engine and all-wheel drive system. The ECM, also known as the engine brain box, is located on the right side of the dashboard and serves as the central computer for engine management. This unit has been inspected by our technicians and is currently on the shelf ready to ship.
The engine control module is a critical component that manages fuel injection, ignition timing, emissions controls, and other vital engine functions. ECMs commonly fail due to electrical surges, water damage, or internal component degradation over time. When your ECM fails, you may experience symptoms like no-start conditions, rough idling, poor fuel economy, or check engine lights. A replacement ECM must be programmed to match your vehicle’s VIN and specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this ECM need to be programmed for my 2010 Toyota Highlander?
Yes, this ECM will need to be programmed by a Toyota dealer or qualified technician to match your vehicle’s VIN and specifications. Programming is required for proper operation and cannot be done without professional diagnostic equipment.
How do I know if my Toyota Highlander ECM has failed?
Common symptoms include no-start conditions, engine stalling, rough idle, check engine lights, poor fuel economy, or transmission shifting issues. A professional diagnostic scan can confirm ECM failure versus other engine management problems.
Will this ECM work with my 2010 Highlander’s 2.7L 4-cylinder engine?
No, this specific ECM is designed for the 3.5L V6 2GR-FE engine with AWD. Engine control modules are engine-specific and must match your exact engine type and drivetrain configuration.
What’s included with this used Toyota Highlander ECM?
You receive the complete engine control module unit as removed from the donor vehicle. Programming, installation, and any required connectors or mounting hardware are not included.
Can I install this ECM myself in my 2010 Toyota Highlander?
While physical installation is straightforward, the ECM requires professional programming to your vehicle’s VIN before it will function. Most DIY installers handle the physical swap but need dealer or shop programming services.
