Is Your Vehicle Plagued by Bizarre Electrical Issues?
If you’re dealing with flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows, a security system that acts on its own, or a car that refuses to start, the culprit is often a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM is the central command center for your vehicle’s body electronics, managing everything from your interior lights and door locks to the anti-theft system. When it starts to fail, it can create a cascade of frustrating and seemingly unrelated problems. Simply swapping it with a used one won’t work, as these modules are programmed specifically to your vehicle’s VIN and security settings.
The Ultimate Plug-and-Play Solution
Forget expensive dealership visits and the hassle of finding a shop capable of programming a new module. Our professional cloning service is the most efficient and reliable way to get your vehicle back to perfect working order. We transfer the critical data from your original BCM directly onto a replacement unit. This means the replacement module is a perfect digital twin of your original, retaining all your vehicle’s specific settings, key fob programming, and security information. The result is a true plug-and-play module that requires no additional programming upon installation.
From the Diagnostic Bay
We recently worked with a 2011 Camaro owner who was at his wit’s end. His car would intermittently fail to start, the radio would sometimes stay on after he left the car, and the power locks worked only when they wanted to. He had already replaced the battery and checked the alternator. After he sent us his original BCM, we discovered internal communication faults. We performed our cloning service, and he received the programmed replacement two days later. He installed it in under 30 minutes, and every single electrical issue was resolved instantly. It saved him from a costly diagnostic rabbit hole at the dealership.
Symptoms of a Failing Body Control Module
- ✔ Intermittent or non-functional power windows, door locks, or mirrors.
- ✔ Erratic behavior from interior or exterior lights (flickering, staying on, or not turning on).
- ✔ The security system light is on, or the alarm goes off randomly.
- ✔ Key fobs or remote entry stop working.
- ✔ The vehicle won’t start, and you see a security or anti-theft message on the dash.
- ✔ Dashboard warning lights appear without a clear cause.
- ✔ Communication errors with other vehicle modules (U-codes).

Post-Installation Information
Our goal is a seamless installation. However, in some GM vehicles, a couple of simple relearn procedures may be necessary after the new module is connected. These are not signs of a faulty part but are standard vehicle-specific sync procedures.
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is illuminated after installation, a professional scan tool is needed to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure. This syncs the airbag system with the BCM and is only required if the light is on.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: On some models, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration might be needed to ensure correct brake light and traction control operation.
Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician for vehicle-specific guidance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need to send you my original BCM?
Your original BCM contains the unique security and programming data for your specific vehicle, including the VIN and key information. By cloning this data, we create a replacement that is 100% plug-and-play, saving you from expensive dealership programming.
Will I need to get my keys reprogrammed?
No. Because we transfer all the data from your original module, the replacement BCM will recognize your existing keys and key fobs perfectly. No key programming is required.
What if my original BCM is completely dead or not communicating?
In many cases, even if the BCM is failing, we can still extract the necessary data. Please contact us before ordering if your module is severely damaged (e.g., by water or fire) or if a technician has confirmed it is completely unresponsive.
How long does the entire process take?
The service itself is completed within 1-2 business days of us receiving your module. The total turnaround time will depend on shipping times to and from our facility.
Is this a simple part to replace myself?
The BCM is typically located in the driver’s or passenger’s side kick panel or behind the dash. For most models, it is accessible with basic hand tools and is a straightforward swap. Disconnecting the battery before starting is always recommended.
