Expert Insight: The Power of Cloning
Many repair shops will install a new or used BCM and then attempt to program it to your vehicle. This process can be complex and sometimes fails to transfer all the subtle, vehicle-specific settings, leading to lingering issues. Our cloning service is different. We perform a direct, bit-for-bit data transfer from your original module. This process creates an exact electronic duplicate, preserving the unique software configuration your car left the factory with. It’s the most reliable method to ensure every feature works perfectly, just as it did before. Itโs not just a repair; itโs a restoration of your vehicleโs original electronic identity.
By choosing our Programmed 13580696 Body Control Module, you’re not just buying a part; you’re investing in a seamless and dependable repair process designed to restore your confidence and get you back on the road without hassle.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the programming service work?
After you place your order, we will provide you with shipping instructions. You’ll need to send your original BCM to us. Once we receive it, our technicians will clone the data onto the replacement unit and ship it back to you, typically within 1-2 business days. We will provide tracking information as soon as it ships.
Is this really a plug-and-play part?
Yes. Because we transfer all the necessary programming and security information from your original module, the replacement unit will be ready for installation upon arrival. No further programming with a scan tool is needed to get the vehicle running and functioning.
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 by water or fire, or if it has no communication whatsoever, so we can assess the situation.
What happens if the airbag light comes on after installation?
This is uncommon, but if it happens, it means the BCM and the airbag module (SDM) need to be re-synchronized. A procedure called ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ can be performed by a qualified technician with a professional-grade diagnostic tool to resolve this.
Do I need any special tools for installation?
Installation typically requires basic hand tools to access the BCM, which is often located in the dash or a kick panel. No special programming tools are required. However, always disconnect the vehicle’s battery before starting any electronic repair work.
Which vehicles does this BCM fit?
This BCM fits a variety of GM models including the 2013 Spark, 2012-2014 Camaro, 2012 Equinox/Terrain, 2012 LaCrosse/Regal, and others as listed in the fitment chart. Always match your original part number to ensure compatibility.
