Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Body Control Module do?
The BCM acts as the central computer for your vehicle’s non-engine related functions. It controls and monitors systems like your power windows, door locks, security system, interior and exterior lighting, wipers, and HVAC climate control.
Is this part difficult to install?
For most of the compatible GM models, the BCM is located under the driver-side dashboard near the steering column and is held in by simple clips or a few bolts. With basic tools, most DIYers can complete the replacement in under 10 minutes. Always remember to disconnect the battery before starting.
Do I need to take my truck to the dealership after installation?
No. The primary benefit of our BCM is that it comes pre-programmed to your vehicle’s VIN. This eliminates the need for dealer-specific tools or software for the main installation. In some cases, a post-install procedure like an ‘SDM Key Relearn’ may be needed with a high-level scan tool if the airbag light appears, but the core functionality is plug-and-play.
How do I know if my BCM is the problem?
Common signs include multiple, unrelated electrical issues happening at once. For example, if your power locks, interior lights, and radio all act up intermittently, the BCM is a strong suspect as it controls all those systems. Specific diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) pointing to body control faults are also a clear indicator.
What does ‘VIN Programmed’ actually mean?
It means we load the module with your vehicle’s unique 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). This configures the BCM with all the specific options and software your vehicle was built with from the factory, ensuring all features work correctly without any additional setup.
Is there a core charge for my old part?
No, there is no core charge. You are not required to send your old, faulty module back to us, saving you time and shipping costs.
