Restore Your Vehicle’s Electrical System with a Plug-and-Play Solution
Are you battling bizarre electrical issues in your Chevrolet Impala or other GM vehicle? Flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows, a security system with a mind of its own, or even a car that won’t start? These frustrating problems often point directly to a failing Body Control Module (BCM), the central computer for your car’s body electronics. Don’t let these electrical gremlins ruin your driving experience or lead to an expensive, time-consuming trip to the dealership.
Common Symptoms & Your Direct Solution
A faulty BCM can manifest in numerous ways, often leaving drivers confused. If you’re experiencing any of the following, a failing module is the likely culprit:
- Power windows, door locks, or mirrors operating intermittently or not at all.
- Interior dome lights or dashboard lights staying on or not turning on.
- Erratic windshield wiper behavior.
- The anti-theft or security system preventing the car from starting.
- False warnings on the instrument cluster (e.g., “Service Airbag”).
- Communication error codes (U-codes) stored in the vehicle’s computer system.
This genuine GM Body Control Module is the definitive fix for these issues. We make the repair process simple by programming the unit specifically to your vehicle’s VIN before it ships. By using the correct 2006-2013 Impala Body Control Module software, we ensure seamless communication with your car’s other computers, restoring full factory functionality right out of the box.

Expert Technician’s Insight: As a technician with over 20 years on the floor, I’ve seen countless drivers replace a BCM only to find it doesn’t work. Why? Because a BCM isn’t just a part; it’s a computer that must be specifically coded to your car’s unique VIN and options package. Skipping this step is like putting a new computer in your office without installing an operating system. Our pre-programming service handles this critical, dealer-level task for you, turning a complex electronic repair into a manageable installation.
Important Post-Installation Information
While this module is designed to be a plug-and-play solution, some vehicles may require minor additional steps after installation. These are standard GM procedures that a professional technician or advanced DIYer can perform.
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is on after installation, a ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure will be needed. This requires a professional-grade diagnostic tool to sync the modules and clear the light.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: A brake pedal position sensor recalibration may be necessary on certain models to ensure proper brake light function and traction control system performance.
Disclaimer: Specific procedures can vary by vehicle. Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician for guidance. Getting the right 2006-2013 Impala Body Control Module is the first step, and proper installation is key.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I absolutely need to provide my VIN?
Yes. Providing your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is mandatory. We cannot ship the part without it. This number allows us to load the exact, correct software for your vehicle’s specific options and systems, which is the only way to guarantee it will work correctly.
Is this BCM difficult to install?
For someone with moderate mechanical experience, the physical installation is typically straightforward. The BCM is usually located under the driver’s or passenger’s side of the dashboard. The main challenge is often accessing it. The key benefit of our product is that the complex programming is already done for you.
What if my airbag light comes on after installation?
This is a known possibility with GM vehicles. It means the new BCM and the airbag system’s SDM (Sensing and Diagnostic Module) need to be electronically introduced. A repair shop with a high-level scan tool can perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure in a few minutes to resolve this.
Will this fix my specific electrical problem?
This module corrects issues directly controlled by the BCM, such as power windows, locks, interior lighting, and security functions. While it solves the vast majority of these problems, proper vehicle diagnosis is always recommended to rule out other potential causes like bad wiring or faulty switches.
Is this a new or used part?
This is a high-quality, tested component that has been inspected and programmed to meet or exceed original factory specifications. It is ready for installation and is backed by our one-year replacement warranty for your confidence.
How do I know if this fits my vehicle?
This module replaces a large number of original GM part numbers. Please review the detailed fitment list on this page. The most important factor is that we program it to your specific VIN, which ensures compatibility for the vehicles listed.
