Are you battling frustrating electrical gremlins in your 2001 GM truck or SUV? Flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows and locks, or a security system that has a mind of its own are all classic signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM is the central command center for your vehicle’s body electronics, and when it starts to fail, it can cause a wide range of confusing and intermittent issues. Restore full functionality and reliability with our pre-programmed BCM, a direct-fit solution for your vehicle.
This module arrives at your door flashed with the latest GM software and programmed specifically to your vehicle’s VIN. This critical step ensures compatibility and proper operation of all related systems right out of the box, saving you a costly trip to the dealership for programming. Simply provide your VIN during checkout, and we’ll handle the rest.
Common Symptoms of a Failing BCM
- ✔ Erratic or non-functional power windows, door locks, and mirrors.
- ✔ Interior or exterior lights flickering, staying on, or not working at all.
- ✔ The security or anti-theft system light is on, preventing the vehicle from starting.
- ✔ Intermittent operation of the radio or climate controls.
- ✔ False warning messages on the instrument cluster.
- ✔ Communication loss with other vehicle modules (DTC U-codes).
Installation and Programming for Your 2001 Yukon BCM
This Body Control Module is a direct replacement for part numbers 19208540, 9370249, and 9392994. It is designed for a straightforward installation, typically located on the left-hand side of the dashboard. Because we program the module to your VIN before shipping, you can avoid the dealership’s programming fees. However, after installation, some simple synchronization procedures may be required to ensure all systems communicate correctly.
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is illuminated after installation, a ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure is needed. This syncs the new BCM with the airbag system and requires a professional-grade scan tool.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: In some cases, a brake pedal position sensor relearn may be necessary to ensure correct brake light and traction control operation.
Best of all, there is no core charge for this part. You can keep your original module without the hassle of returning a core.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this BCM truly plug-and-play?
It is pre-programmed to your VIN, making it as close to plug-and-play as possible. Most functions will work immediately. However, as with any module replacement, certain security or safety systems like the airbag may require a simple relearn procedure with a diagnostic tool to sync with the new BCM.
How do I provide my VIN?
You can add your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN to the notes section during checkout. If you forget, we will contact you via email after your purchase to request it. We cannot ship the module until it has been programmed.
What tools are needed for the post-installation procedures?
The Airbag System Sync and Brake Pedal Position Relearn procedures require a bi-directional professional scan tool. Many local repair shops can perform these quick procedures for you if you do not have access to one.
Do I need to send my old BCM back?
No. This part is sold with no core charge, so you are not required to return your original module.
Will this fix my intermittent starting problem?
If your no-start issue is caused by the factory anti-theft system (Passlock) being triggered by a faulty BCM, then yes, this will resolve the problem. The security information from your VIN is programmed into this module to ensure it communicates correctly with your key and ignition system.
