Is Your GMC Yukon XL Experiencing Strange Electrical Problems?
If your 2003-2006 GMC Yukon XL 2500 is plagued by frustrating electrical issues like malfunctioning lights, unresponsive power windows, or erratic HVAC controls, a failing Body Control Module (BCM) is the most likely culprit. The BCM acts as the central command center for your truck’s body electronics, and when it fails, it can create a cascade of seemingly unrelated problems. This OEM-quality replacement BCM, part number 15137394, is the definitive solution to restore your vehicle’s full functionality and reliability.
Common Symptoms of BCM Failure
- ✔ Intermittent or non-working interior and exterior lights.
- ✔ Power windows, door locks, or mirrors failing to operate.
- ✔ HVAC and climate control systems behaving erratically or not at all.
- ✔ Vehicle security system faults, including no-start conditions where the engine won’t crank.
- ✔ The airbag warning light illuminating on the dash, often with a B1001 diagnostic trouble code.
- ✔ Wipers operating randomly or not responding to the switch.
The Plug-and-Play Solution: A Pre-Programmed 2003-2006 Yukon XL BCM
Forget expensive dealership visits and complex programming procedures. We take the hassle out of the repair by pre-programming this module to your vehicle’s exact Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). This ensures that the BCM works seamlessly with your Yukon’s specific features and options right out of the box. The software is loaded with the latest updates from GM for optimal performance and longevity. This is a true plug-and-play fix that gets you back on the road fast.
Installation is straightforward: simply disconnect the vehicle’s battery, locate the original BCM (typically found under the steering column), and swap it with your new, pre-programmed module. In most cases, the job takes less than 15 minutes. While this module resolves most issues upon installation, 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. Additionally, a brake pedal position sensor relearn may be needed on certain models.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this Body Control Module truly plug-and-play?
Yes! We program the module to your vehicle’s VIN before shipping. This ensures it communicates correctly with your truck’s existing systems, eliminating the need for dealership programming.
Where is the BCM located on my 2004 GMC Yukon XL 2500?
On the 2003-2006 Yukon XL 2500, the BCM is typically located under the driver’s side of the dashboard, near the steering column.
Do I need to return my old BCM?
No, there is no core charge for this part. You can keep your old module, which saves you the time and expense of a return shipment.
What if my airbag light stays on after installation?
If the airbag light is on, it means the new BCM needs to be synchronized with the airbag’s Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM). This requires a ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure, which can be performed by a technician with a professional-grade scan tool.
Will this BCM fix a no-start or security problem?
A faulty BCM is a very common cause of no-start conditions related to the vehicle’s anti-theft or security system. Replacing it with our VIN-programmed module often resolves these issues.
