Restore Your Vehicle’s Electrical System
Are you battling frustrating electrical issues in your GM vehicle? Flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows, or random warning messages on your dash are common signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM acts as the central hub for your vehicle’s body electronics, and when it fails, it can cause a wide range of unpredictable problems. This replacement Body Control Module is the definitive solution to restore your vehicle’s functionality and peace of mind.
We make the repair process simple. Unlike the dealership, which requires you to bring your vehicle in for expensive programming, we program this module to your vehicle’s specific VIN before we ship it. This means it arrives ready for installation, loaded with the latest software updates from GM, ensuring optimal performance and compatibility. Just provide your VIN at checkout, and we’ll handle the complex part.
We recently had a 2009 Chevy Impala in the shop with a classic case of BCM failure. The customer complained of the interior lights staying on and the radio randomly shutting off. After confirming the BCM was the culprit, we ordered one of these pre-programmed units. The installation was straightforward, and because the programming was already done, the car was back to normal in a fraction of the time and cost of a dealership visit. The customer was thrilled to have their car back without the electrical gremlins.

Important Post-Installation Information
While this module is pre-programmed for your vehicle, certain security and safety systems may require a ‘handshake’ with the new BCM after installation. This is a standard procedure for many modern vehicles.
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is on after installation, a ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure must be performed with a professional diagnostic tool. This syncs the new BCM with the airbag system.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: On some models, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration may be needed to ensure correct brake light and traction control operation.
Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician for vehicle-specific procedures.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I provide my vehicle’s VIN?
After you complete your purchase, you will need to send us your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). We cannot program and ship your BCM without it.
Is this part truly plug-and-play?
For most functions, yes. Because it’s pre-programmed, it eliminates the most difficult step. However, as noted, some vehicles may require additional relearn procedures for safety systems like airbags or brakes, which require a diagnostic scan tool.
My original part number is not 15299986. Will this still work?
Yes, this BCM is a direct replacement for the extensive list of part numbers shown in the product details. As long as your original part number is on that list, this module will fit and function correctly.
Do I need to send my old BCM back?
No. There is no core charge for this part. You can keep your original module.
What if I install it and the airbag light comes on?
This is a known possibility. It means the BCM needs to be synchronized with the vehicle’s Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM). A repair shop with a professional-grade scan tool can perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure to resolve this.
