VerifiedHello! My name is Gary.
Welcome to JustAnswer.
The car just stopped, instantly like turning the key off, or gradually like running out of fuel?
You have spark at the plug leads, and fuel pressure?
When did the PCM change occur?
Do you have access to TECH2 for this?
VS Series III ute came out when VT came out, Holden should be still able to program for you.
