Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly does the Body Control Module do?
The Body Control Module (BCM) is a computer in your vehicle that controls and monitors a wide variety of electronic accessories not related to the engine, such as power windows, power locks, interior and exterior lighting, the security system, and wipers.
Why do I need to provide my VIN?
Your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is essential because it allows us to program the BCM with the specific software and settings for your vehicle’s exact make, model, and options. This ensures it works correctly right after installation without needing a trip to the dealer.
Is this part difficult to install?
While the part is designed for direct replacement, installation difficulty varies by model. The key benefit of our service is that the programming is done for you. However, some vehicles may require additional procedures after installation, such as a security relearn or sensor calibration. We recommend consulting a service manual or a professional technician if you are not comfortable with the process.
What if my airbag light is on after I install it?
In some cases, the new BCM needs to be synced with the airbag system. If the airbag warning light comes on, a ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure must be performed with a professional-grade scan tool to resolve it.
Do I have to send my old BCM back?
No. This product comes with no core charge, so you do not need to return your original, failed module. This simplifies the process for you.
Will this fix my car’s no-start problem?
A failing BCM is a common cause of no-start issues, particularly those related to the anti-theft or security system. If the BCM is the root cause of the problem, this programmed module is designed to resolve it.
