Tired of Your Vehicle’s Electrical Gremlins?
Are you dealing with frustrating and unpredictable electrical issues in your vehicle? Flickering dashboard lights, power windows that won’t cooperate, a security system that acts up, or worseโa car that refuses to start? These are classic signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM is the central command center for your car’s body electronics, and when it fails, it can cause a cascade of confusing problems. This pre-programmed BCM is your direct, reliable, and cost-effective solution to restore order and get your vehicle running smoothly again.
Common Symptoms of a Failing BCM & Your Solution
A faulty BCM can make your vehicle feel unreliable. You might be experiencing issues like malfunctioning power locks and windows, erratic interior or exterior lighting, incorrect instrument panel warnings, or communication errors that trigger DTCs (Diagnostic Trouble Codes) like U0140, U0155, or other ‘U’ codes. Our service for the 2012 Chevy Volt BCM 13588446 is designed to eliminate these problems permanently.

Expert Insight: Why BCM Cloning is the Superior Repair Method
Think of your BCM as your car’s unique digital fingerprint. It stores critical information like the VIN, key immobilizer data, and settings for all your vehicle’s specific options (like a sunroof or premium sound system). Simply installing a used BCM from another vehicle won’t workโit has the wrong ‘fingerprint’ and will cause conflicts. A new one from the dealer is a ‘blank slate’ that requires specialized, expensive tools to program. Our cloning service is the best of both worlds. We precisely copy the original fingerprint onto a fully functional replacement module, making it the most seamless, reliable, and intelligent way to solve your BCM issues.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the mail-in cloning process work?
It’s simple! After you place your order, we will contact you with detailed instructions to safely package and ship your original BCM to our facility. Once we receive it, our technicians will perform the data transfer to the replacement unit and ship it back to you, typically within 1-2 business days. We provide tracking information for the return shipment.
What data is transferred from my old BCM?
We transfer all the critical vehicle-specific data, including the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), immobilizer/security information, mileage, and programming for your car’s specific features and options. This ensures the replacement module works exactly like your original one did.
Will I need to do any extra programming after installation?
No. Our cloning service makes this a true plug-and-play module. The goal is to avoid any need for you to visit a dealer or use a special scan tool for programming. However, on some models, minor relearn procedures like for the Brake Pedal Position sensor or Airbag system sync may be required, as noted in the listing.
What if my original BCM is completely dead or not communicating?
In many cases, even if the BCM is not communicating with the vehicle, we can still extract the necessary data directly from the board. If you suspect your module is completely non-functional, please contact us before purchasing to discuss the situation. We can often recover data where others can’t.
Is this a guaranteed fix for my vehicle’s problems?
This service is a guaranteed fix for a faulty BCM. It is crucial that your vehicle has been properly diagnosed. If your issues are caused by wiring problems, faulty sensors, or other modules, replacing the BCM will not resolve them. A proper diagnosis is the first step to a successful repair with your 2012 Chevy Volt BCM 13588446.
