Restore Full Electronic Functionality to Your Vehicle
Are you battling bizarre electrical issues in your Pontiac Torrent or other GM vehicle? Flickering lights, unresponsive power windows, erratic door locks, or a security system that has a mind of its own are all classic signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM is the central command center for your vehicle’s body electronics, and when it malfunctions, it can cause a cascade of frustrating problems. This replacement Body Control Module, part number 25847589, is the definitive solution to restore order and reliability to your car’s essential features.
From the Diagnostic Bay
We once had a 2008 Chevy Equinox (which uses the same BCM) come into the shop with the owner at his wit’s end. He had replaced the driver’s side window motor twice, but the window would still only work intermittently. He was convinced he had a wiring short somewhere deep in the door. After a quick scan, we saw communication faults with the BCM. Instead of hours chasing wires, we installed a VIN-programmed BCM. Not only did the window start working perfectly, but his intermittent radio and dome light issues he hadn’t even mentioned were also resolved. It’s a perfect example of how one failing module can create multiple, seemingly unrelated symptoms.
Common Symptoms of a Failing BCM
- ✔ Power windows, mirrors, or door locks not working or operating erratically.
- ✔ Interior or exterior lights staying on, flickering, or not turning on at all.
- ✔ The anti-theft or security system preventing the car from starting.
- ✔ Dashboard warning lights appearing for no reason.
- ✔ Wipers or horn activating unexpectedly.
- ✔ Inaccurate fuel gauge or other instrument cluster problems.
Why Choose Our Pre-Programmed 2007-2009 Torrent BCM?
Getting back on the road shouldn’t be complicated. Dealerships often require you to buy the part, have your vehicle towed in, and then pay significant labor charges for programming. We simplify the process. This is a genuine OEM Body Control Module that we program specifically for your vehicle using your VIN. We load the latest GM-certified software, ensuring optimal performance and correcting any factory bugs. This means when the part arrives, it’s ready for installation without the need for an expensive trip to the dealer.
This module is a direct replacement for a wide range of part numbers, including: 10382479, 15093910, 15276271, 15819552, 25847589, 25892622, 20815898, 22860591, and many more. It fits a vast array of GM vehicles like the Chevy Equinox, GMC Acadia, Saturn Vue, Chevy Impala, and Cadillac DTS. Please verify your model in the fitment list to ensure compatibility.
Installation and Post-Install Notes
While the module is plug-and-play, some vehicles may require simple post-installation relearn procedures. These can often be done with a capable bi-directional scan tool. The two most common are:
- Airbag System Sync: If your airbag light is on after installation, a technician will need to perform the “Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM” procedure to sync the modules.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: To ensure correct brake light and traction control operation, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration may be needed.
Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician for vehicle-specific procedures.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to program this BCM?
No. We handle all the programming for you before shipment. Simply provide your vehicle’s VIN during or after checkout, and the module will arrive ready to install with the latest GM software.
How do I provide my VIN number?
After you complete your purchase, you will receive instructions on how to send us your VIN. We cannot ship your part until we receive the VIN to perform the programming.
What if my airbag light comes on after I install it?
This is a normal security feature on some GM vehicles. The BCM needs to be electronically ‘introduced’ to the airbag’s computer (SDM). A repair shop with a professional scan tool can perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure to resolve this.
Is this a brand new part?
This is a high-quality, tested OEM part that has been professionally programmed with the newest, clean software from GM for your specific vehicle. It provides the same reliability as a new module from the dealer.
Do I need to send my old BCM back?
No. There is no core charge for this part. You can keep your original module.
My original part number is slightly different. Will this still work?
Our module replaces a long list of interchangeable GM part numbers. As long as your vehicle model and year are on our compatibility list, this module will function correctly once programmed to your VIN.
