Is Your GM Truck Plagued by Bizarre Electrical Issues?
n
If you’re driving a 1999-2000 GMC Sierra, Chevy Silverado, or a similar GM truck, you know it’s a workhorse. But when the Body Control Module (BCM) starts to fail, it can feel like your truck is haunted. The BCM is the central command center for your vehicle’s body electronics, controlling everything from the power windows and interior lights to the security system. A faulty BCM can lead to a frustrating array of intermittent and confusing problems that can be difficult to diagnose.

Common Symptoms of a Failing BCM
n
A failing BCM doesn’t usually die silently. It will often present a variety of symptoms that can seem unrelated. If you’re experiencing several of the following issues, your BCM is the likely culprit:
n
- n
- ✔ Security System Problems: The security light on the dash is on or flashing, and the engine won’t start (a common Passlock issue).
- ✔ Erratic Power Accessories: Power windows, door locks, and mirrors work intermittently or not at all.
- ✔ Lighting Malfunctions: Interior dome lights stay on, headlights won’t turn off, or turn signals behave erratically.
- ✔ Instrument Cluster Glitches: Gauges may stop working, or warning lights like the airbag or brake light may illuminate for no reason.
- ✔ HVAC Control Issues: The blower motor or A/C compressor may not engage properly.
- ✔ False Door Ajar Warnings: The dash indicates a door is open when it’s securely closed.

The Direct-Fit Solution: A Programmed 1999-2000 Sierra 1500 BCM
n
Don’t let a faulty module keep your truck off the road. This isn’t just a replacement part; it’s a complete, ready-to-install solution. We take the guesswork and high dealership costs out of the equation. Before we ship this BCM, our technicians will program it with your truck’s specific Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). This crucial step ensures that the module communicates perfectly with your truck’s other electronic systems, like the engine computer and instrument cluster, right out of the box. It also receives the latest available software updates from GM, often resolving issues that were present even in the original factory programming.

Installation and Post-Install Notes
n
The BCM is typically located on the driver’s side, under the dashboard. While installation is a straightforward unbolt-and-unplug process, there are a few key things to be aware of after the new module is in place:
n
- n
- No Core Charge: You are not required to send your old BCM back to us. There is no core charge associated with this purchase.
- Airbag System Sync: In some cases, the airbag warning light may illuminate after installation. This is because the new BCM needs to be electronically introduced to the airbag’s Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM). A professional scan tool is required to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure to sync the systems and turn off the light.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: A brake pedal position sensor recalibration might be necessary on certain models to ensure correct brake light operation and traction control performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to have a dealer program this BCM?
No. This is the primary benefit of our service. We program the BCM to your vehicle’s specific VIN before it ships, so it arrives ready for installation. This saves you a trip to the dealership and expensive programming fees.
Where do I provide my VIN?
After you complete your purchase, you will need to send us your 17-digit VIN. We will provide clear instructions on how to do this. We cannot program and ship your module without your vehicle’s VIN.
What tools are needed for the post-installation procedures?
Procedures like the Airbag System Sync (‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’) require a bi-directional professional diagnostic tool, such as a GM Tech 2 or a high-end Snap-on or Autel scanner. Most basic code readers cannot perform these functions.
Is there a core charge for my old part?
No, there is absolutely no core charge. You can keep your original module.
My original part number is 16257125. Will this module work?
Yes. This BCM is a direct replacement for all the part numbers listed, including 16257125. It will function identically to the original and has been updated with the latest software.
