• Compare: Used OEM, New Aftermarket

• Used OEM: Best value - genuine factory parts, tested and inspected, at significantly lower prices
• Used OEM modules offer a cost-effective way to get a factory-original part. These modules are typically removed from vehicles that were damaged or salvaged, and then tested to ensure they are working properly.

• New Aftermarket: Brand new third-party parts built to OE specs
• New aftermarket modules are manufactured by companies other than the original vehicle manufacturer. They are designed to meet or exceed the specifications of the original part.

• Parts commonly replaced or checked at the same time:
• Air suspension compressor.
• Air struts or shocks.
• Ride height sensors.
• Wheel speed sensors.

• Why replacing related parts prevents repeat failures:
• A failing air suspension compressor can overwork the Chassis Control Module, causing it to fail prematurely. Replacing worn suspension components can prevent stress on the module.

• How long this part normally lasts:
• 5-10 years is a typical lifespan, but it can vary.

• Factors that affect longevity:
• Driving conditions.
• Maintenance of the suspension system.
• Exposure to moisture and extreme temperatures.

• No unusual noises from the suspension.
• Correct operation of the suspension modes (if equipped).

• Q: Will this module need to be programmed after installation?
• A: Yes, in many cases, the module will need to be programmed to your specific vehicle using a diagnostic scan tool. This is often required for the module to communicate properly with the vehicle's other systems.

• Q: How do I know if my Chassis Control Module is really bad?
• A: The best way is to have a professional mechanic diagnose the problem. They can use a diagnostic scan tool to read error codes and perform tests to determine if the module is faulty.
