Are you battling frustrating electrical problems in your 2001 GM truck? Issues like flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows and locks, or a security system that acts up on its own are often signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM is the central command center for your vehicle’s body electronics, and when it fails, it can cause a wide range of confusing and intermittent symptoms. This replacement Body Control Module, part number 09370249, is the definitive solution to restore your truck’s functionality and peace of mind.
We make the repair process straightforward. Unlike a trip to the dealer, this BCM arrives at your door pre-programmed with the latest GM software updates, specifically flashed to your vehicle’s unique Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). This means no expensive dealership programming is required. Simply provide us with your VIN after purchase, and we’ll handle the complex programming before we ship the part to you. This ensures a direct-fit, plug-and-play installation experience.

Installation and Post-Install Considerations
Installation is typically straightforward, involving locating the module under the driver’s side dash and swapping the connectors. However, on these GM platforms, some post-installation procedures may be necessary:
- Airbag System Sync: If your airbag warning light is illuminated after installation, a professional scan tool is needed to perform the “Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM” procedure. This syncs the new BCM with the airbag system.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: In some cases, a brake pedal position sensor relearn may be required to ensure proper brake light and traction control operation.
Please note: While many DIYers can perform the physical swap, these additional procedures may require a qualified technician with a high-level diagnostic tool. Always consult a factory service manual for your specific vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Body Control Module do?
The BCM is a computer that manages and controls many of your vehicle’s non-engine related functions, such as power windows, locks, lights, wipers, security system, and interior accessories.
Is this part difficult to install?
The physical installation is relatively simple for someone with basic mechanical skills. It’s usually located under the driver’s side dashboard. However, as noted, some vehicles may require post-installation electronic procedures with a scan tool.
What do I do after I order?
After you complete your purchase, you will need to send us your 17-digit VIN. We cannot ship your order until we receive your VIN, as we need it to program the module specifically for your truck.
Do I need to return my old BCM?
No. This product comes with no core charge. You can keep your old part, saving you the time and expense of a return shipment.
What if my airbag light turns on after I install it?
This is a known possibility. It means the new BCM needs to be electronically synced with the airbag’s Supplemental Inflatable Restraint (SIR) module. This requires a ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure using a professional-grade scan tool.
Will this fit my 2001 Tahoe?
Yes, this BCM is compatible with the 2001 Chevrolet Tahoe (4×4) and other listed GM SUVs, as long as the original part ID is 9392994. It is a direct replacement for part numbers 09370249, 19208540, and 9392994.
