Is Your GM Truck or Van Plagued by Electrical Gremlins?
If you’re dealing with flickering lights, unresponsive power windows, a malfunctioning HVAC system, or even a no-start condition in your 2004-2007 GMC Savana, Chevrolet Express, or other compatible GM vehicle, a failing Body Control Module (BCM) is the most likely culprit. The BCM acts as the central command center for your vehicle’s body electronics. When it fails, it can cause a cascade of frustrating and seemingly unrelated issues, making diagnosis difficult. Stop chasing electrical problems and replace the core component with a reliable, pre-programmed solution.

Before you begin the installation, always disconnect the negative terminal of your vehicle’s battery. This crucial step prevents accidental electrical shorts and helps the vehicle’s systems reset and recognize the new module upon reconnection, ensuring a smoother installation process.
Symptoms of a Failing Body Control Module
A faulty BCM can manifest in numerous ways. If you’re experiencing any of the following, it’s a strong indicator that your BCM needs replacement:
- ✔ Intermittent or non-working power windows, door locks, or interior/exterior lighting.
- ✔ HVAC blower motor or climate controls operating erratically or not at all.
- ✔ An illuminated airbag warning light, often accompanied by diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) like B1001.
- ✔ Vehicle security system issues, including false alarms or the inability to start the engine.
- ✔ A variety of communication errors or body-related DTCs when scanned with a diagnostic tool.
- ✔ Problems with windshield wipers or other electronic accessories.
