This isn’t just an inconvenience; it can compromise your vehicle’s safety and reliability.

Why Choose a Pre-Programmed Module?
n
Replacing an Impala Body Control Module isn’t just a matter of swapping parts. A new BCM must be coded to your vehicle’s specific VIN and options to function correctly. Our service handles this critical step for you. This module is compatible with a wide range of GM vehicles and part numbers, including 10382479, 15828601, 20815898, 22860591, and many more. Please verify your part number or consult the extensive fitment list below to ensure compatibility with models like the Equinox, Acadia, Traverse, Tahoe, Express Van, and others.

Post-Installation Requirements
n
While this module is designed for plug-and-play installation, some vehicles may require simple relearn procedures. After installation, if your airbag warning light is on, a professional scan tool will be needed to perform the “Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM” procedure. Additionally, a Brake Pedal Position Relearn may be necessary on certain models to ensure proper brake light and stability control function. Always consult a factory service manual for your specific vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Body Control Module (BCM) do?
The BCM is a computer that manages and controls many of your vehicle’s non-engine related electronic systems. This includes power windows, door locks, the security system, interior and exterior lighting, wipers, and more.
How do I provide my VIN for programming?
After you complete your purchase, you will need to send us your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). We cannot ship your part until we receive this information, as the programming is specific to your exact vehicle.
Is this a difficult part to install?
For most DIY mechanics with basic tools, the physical installation is straightforward. The BCM is typically located under the driver’s or passenger’s side of the dashboard. The main benefit of our product is that the complex programming is already done for you.
Do I need to send my old part back?
No. There is no core charge for this part. You can keep your original module.
What if my airbag light is on after I install the BCM?
This is a known possibility. It means the new BCM needs to be synced with the airbag system’s computer (SDM). A procedure called “Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM” must be performed with a professional-grade diagnostic tool to resolve this.
