Q: 2004 Cadillac CTS 3.6 liter. Pulling a PO 206 code, so far I've replaced

asked by on March 14, 2018

If I replaced the #6 fuel injector, connector, and spark plug, would the ECM need reprogramming or would it pick up the new injector? Its still pulling PO206 code, so I'm guessing its a faulty ECM.
