Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly does the BCM do on my Silverado?
The Body Control Module (BCM) is a computer that manages and controls many of your truck’s non-engine related electronic functions. This includes the power windows, door locks, security system, interior and exterior lights, warning chimes, and wipers.
Is this part difficult to install?
The physical installation is generally straightforward. On most 1999-2000 Silverados and Sierras, the BCM is located under the driver’s side of the dashboard. It involves removing a few trim panels and connectors. Because we pre-program the unit, no special computer tools are needed for the initial setup.
How do I provide my VIN for programming?
After you place your order, you will receive instructions on how to send us your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN. We cannot ship your part until we receive this information, as the programming is essential for the module to function in your truck.
What if my airbag light is on after installation?
In some cases, the new BCM may need to be synchronized with the airbag system (SDM). If the airbag light stays on, a ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure must be performed by a shop with a professional-grade scan tool. This is a simple sync procedure, not a full reprogramming.
Do I have to send my old BCM back?
No. This purchase does not have a core charge. You can keep your original part, which can be useful if you ever need to reference old part numbers.
Will this fit my 2000 GMC Sierra 2500?
Yes, this BCM is compatible with a wide range of GM trucks and SUVs from this era that use the same part numbers, including the GMC Sierra, Chevy S10, GMC Sonoma, and others. Please check the fitment list in the description to confirm your specific model.
