Complete Vehicle VIN change
Posted: Fri Jan 12, 2018 11:52 pm
Hi Chris,
Have a project going would like to get your input on.
I acquired a 2014 PPV Ex police car with about 140K miles on it.
I then Acquired a Wrecked 2015 SS Manual with 9k miles on it.
Plan is to transfer over the complete interior (and all power options) and the engine and trans to the PPV.
I started thinking well the PCM would have to come over since it is a 6.2 and a manual so easier to transfer over the SS PCM and just reprogram the VIN. Would have to do the same for the BCM since there is all those cool features of the SS I want to keep. Then I am sure there are other modules that would need to come over to retain features. Seat position memory modules, collision avoidance modules, parking assist etc.
My question is it possible for me to reprogram the PPV's VIN into all these modules so when I go to get an inspection the VIN that comes up is the PPV's and not the SS's?
Do you have a list of modules that store the VIN in the SS / PPV? In other words how many you think I would need to do.
I have an Autel Scanner at work that is supposedly capable of doing this. But wondering if I am missing a bigger picture.
Thanks for any input.
If anyone else has gone through scenario this please chime in.
