Restore Full Functionality to Your GM Truck or Van
Is your Chevrolet Express, Silverado, or GMC Savana experiencing bizarre electrical problems? The Body Control Module, or BCM, is the central command center for your vehicle’s body electronics. When it begins to fail, it can cause a cascade of frustrating issues, from flickering lights to a non-responsive security system. This replacement BCM is the reliable, cost-effective solution to restore your vehicle’s performance and your peace of mind.
Common Symptoms of a Failing BCM:
- ✔ Power windows, door locks, or mirrors operating intermittently or not at all.
- ✔ Interior or exterior lights staying on, not turning on, or flickering randomly.
- ✔ The security or anti-theft light is illuminated, and the vehicle may not start.
- ✔ Inaccurate or non-functional instrument panel gauges.
- ✔ The radio or climate control system behaving erratically.
- ✔ False warnings appearing on the driver information center.
From the Diagnostic Bay
We once had a 2005 Silverado 2500 in the shop where the owner had spent hundreds of dollars replacing the headlight switch, the power window master switch, and even the battery, trying to solve a host of electrical gremlins. The dome light would stay on, the driver’s window worked only when it wanted to, and the horn would chirp randomly. After a quick scan, we traced all the faults back to a single point of failure: a faulty BCM. Replacing it with a pre-programmed unit like this one solved every single issue instantly, saving the customer from further guesswork and unnecessary expense.
Why Choose Our Programmed Chevy Express Body Control Module?
This isn’t just a replacement part; it’s a complete, ready-to-install solution. We take the hassle and high cost out of the repair process. Before we ship your module, our technicians will program it with the latest GM software updates, specifically flashed to your vehicle’s unique Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). This ensures seamless integration and communication with your vehicle’s other electronic systems right out of the box, eliminating the need for an expensive trip to the dealership for programming.
Important Installation & System Sync Information
While this module is designed for straightforward installation, some vehicle systems may require recalibration after the BCM is replaced. Please be aware of the following potential procedures:
- Airbag System Sync: If your airbag warning light is on 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: To ensure correct brake light operation and stability control function, a brake pedal position sensor relearn may be required.
Disclaimer: Specific procedures can vary by vehicle. Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician for guidance.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I provide my VIN for programming?
After you complete your purchase, you will receive an email with instructions on where to send your VIN. You can also add your VIN in the notes section during checkout. We cannot ship your part until we receive this information.
Is this BCM difficult to install?
For most models, the BCM is located under the steering column or behind the center dash and is accessible with basic hand tools. Installation typically involves disconnecting the battery, removing trim panels, and swapping the electrical connectors. However, we always recommend consulting a service manual or professional for your specific vehicle.
Do I need to return my old BCM?
No, there is no core charge for this part. You can keep your original module.
What if my airbag light comes on after installation?
This is a known possibility. The new BCM needs to be electronically ‘introduced’ to the airbag system (SDM). This requires a ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure, which must be performed by a repair shop with a professional-grade diagnostic tool.
Will this part be a new or used module?
This is a high-quality, tested, and verified used OEM part that has been programmed with the latest software for your vehicle, ensuring reliable performance and perfect fitment.
