VXDIAG GM SPS Programming No Saturn Make Solution

Problem:

I have a 2008 Saturn VUE and need to program an EBCM on it. But find it is not a selectable make for GM SPS programming. Saab and even Suzuki were both there. I tried tis2000 it has Saturn vehicles but it is too new for that software. I have a tech2 but no options for changin vin, or module setup for EBCM. What software is used to program this vehicle?

Solution:

There’s no other programming software from GM out of SPS.  According to GM Service Information, to program the EBCM from a 2008 Saturn Vue , you should use SPS

Solution 2:
Even if you pick a completely wrong vehicle, the GM servers will load the correct calibration. I did not have saturn in mine either and I picked a chevy Silverado instead and it worked without any problems. I plugged in the original ECM and the calibrations were the same.
