Are you experiencing frustrating and unpredictable electrical problems in your Pontiac Torrent or other compatible GM vehicle? A failing Body Control Module (BCM) is often the culprit. The BCM acts as the central command center for your vehicle’s body electronics, managing everything from power windows and locks to interior lighting and security systems. When it malfunctions, it can cause a cascade of confusing issues that can be difficult to diagnose.
This is a direct-fit replacement Body Control Module, part number 15921352, for a wide range of GM vehicles. To ensure a simple and effective repair, we program the module to your vehicle’s specific VIN before shipping. This eliminates the need for expensive dealership programming, making it a true plug-and-play solution. Simply provide your VIN after purchase, and we’ll handle the rest, loading the latest GM software updates for optimal performance.
We had a 2008 Torrent come in with a list of gremlins that seemed unrelated. The dome light would flicker, the driver’s side power window worked only intermittently, and the key fob would randomly stop responding. The owner had already replaced the battery and checked fuses. After connecting our diagnostic tool, we saw multiple communication errors pointing towards the BCM. A failing BCM can lose its ability to properly route signals, causing these exact kinds of phantom issues. Once we installed a VIN-programmed BCM, all the strange electrical problems vanished instantly.
Common Symptoms of a Failing 2007-2009 Torrent BCM
- ✔ Erratic or non-functional power windows, door locks, or mirrors.
- ✔ Interior or exterior lights that stay on, flicker, or won’t turn on at all.
- ✔ The key fob failing to lock or unlock the doors.
- ✔ A “Service Theft System” or other security-related warning on the dash.
- ✔ Instrument cluster gauges behaving erratically or not working.
- ✔ Intermittent no-start conditions where the engine cranks but won’t fire up.
- ✔ Horn honking unexpectedly or not working when pressed.
Installation and Post-Install Procedures
Installation is straightforward for those with mechanical experience. The BCM is typically located in the center dash area. Once installed, most functions will be restored immediately. However, depending on your specific vehicle, a couple of additional steps may be required:
- Airbag System Sync: If the 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: Some models may require a brake pedal position sensor relearn to ensure proper brake light and traction control operation.
Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician for guidance specific to your vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to program this module?
No. We pre-program the module to your vehicle’s VIN before shipping. It arrives ready for installation with no additional programming required.
How do I provide my VIN?
After you complete your purchase, you will receive instructions on how to send us your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN. We cannot ship your part until we receive this information.
Is this part difficult to install?
For the Pontiac Torrent, the BCM is located in the center dash. While it is a plug-and-play part, accessing it may require removing some dash panels. If you are not comfortable with this, we recommend professional installation.
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 turns on after installation?
This can happen occasionally. It means the new BCM needs to be synced with the airbag system’s computer (SDM). This requires a professional scan tool to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure.
Will this fix all of my vehicle’s electrical problems?
This module will resolve any issues directly caused by a faulty BCM. If your problems persist after installation, it may indicate an issue with another component, such as wiring or a different module.
