ECM Default Actions

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2019 GMC Savana 3500, 2019 GMC Savana 2500, 2019 Chevrolet Express 3500, and 2019 Chevrolet Express 2500. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

When a malfunction occurs within the engine control system, the engine control module (ECM) maintains control of the system with Default Actions. Default Actions are calculated values, and/or calibrated default values, that are stored within the ECM. A certain level of engine performance is possible when a malfunction occurs dependent on the Default Actions taken. The ECM Default Actions prevent a complete loss of engine performance.
