Restore Full Electrical Function to Your 2002 GM Truck or SUV
Are you battling a frustrating array of electrical gremlins in your vehicle? Issues like erratic power windows, malfunctioning door locks, a persistent security light, or a vehicle that refuses to start can often be traced back to a single point of failure: the Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM acts as the central hub for your truck’s body electronics, and when it fails, it can cause widespread and confusing problems. This replacement Body Control Module, part number 15095335, is the definitive solution for restoring order and reliability to your vehicle’s systems.
Symptoms of a Failing 2002 Yukon Body Control Module
A failing BCM can manifest in numerous ways. If you’re experiencing any of the following, this module is likely the component you need. This part is a direct replacement, designed to solve these common issues:
- ✔ Intermittent or non-functional power windows, door locks, or mirrors.
- ✔ The security or anti-theft light stays illuminated on the dashboard.
- ✔ Vehicle fails to start, accompanied by a security light.
- ✔ Interior or exterior lights behaving erratically (staying on or not turning on).

- ✔ False warnings like “Service 4WD” appearing on the driver information center.
Plug-and-Play Installation with VIN Programming
Forget expensive trips to the dealership for programming. We take the hassle out of the repair process. When you purchase this BCM, we will flash it with the latest GM software updates and program it specifically to your vehicle’s Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).

After placing your order, you must provide us with your 17-digit VIN to complete the programming process before we can ship your part.
Important Post-Installation Information
While this module is designed for a straightforward installation, some vehicles may require additional steps, known as relearn procedures, to fully sync with the new BCM. These can typically be performed with a high-end diagnostic scan tool.
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is on after installation, a procedure called ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ is necessary to sync the airbag system with the new BCM.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: On some models, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration might be needed to ensure correct brake light operation and traction control system performance.
Please note: Specific procedures can vary. We always recommend consulting a factory service manual or a qualified technician for guidance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Body Control Module do?
The BCM is a computer that manages and controls many of your vehicle’s non-engine related functions. This includes power windows, locks, interior lighting, the security system, and communication between various electronic components.
Is this BCM difficult to install?
The physical installation is straightforward for someone with basic mechanical skills. The BCM is typically located under the driver’s side dashboard near the steering column. It involves disconnecting the battery, removing a few trim panels, and swapping the electrical connectors.
Do I need to program this module?
No. We handle the programming for you before shipment. Simply provide your vehicle’s VIN at checkout, and the module will arrive ready to be installed, saving you a costly trip to the dealer.
What happens if my airbag light is on after installation?
This is a known possibility. It means the new BCM needs to be electronically introduced to the airbag system’s computer (SDM). A qualified technician with a professional scan tool can perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure to resolve this.
Why do you need my VIN?
Your VIN allows us to program the BCM with the exact software and settings your vehicle had when it left the factory. This ensures all features specific to your truck, like keyless entry or 4×4 options, work correctly.
Is there a core charge for my old part?
No, there is no core charge for this part. You can keep your original module.
