Installation & Post-Install Notes
Installation is straightforward for most DIY mechanics. The BCM is typically located under the driver’s side dashboard near the steering column. Simply disconnect the battery, remove the old module, plug in the new one, and reconnect the battery. While our programming handles the heavy lifting, some vehicles may require a ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure with a professional scan tool if the airbag light remains on. This syncs the new BCM with the airbag system. A brake pedal position sensor relearn may also be needed on certain models. There is no core charge, so you can keep your old part without any hassle.
