Restore Your Saturn Outlook’s Electrical System

If you’re dealing with bizarre and frustrating electrical problems in your 2007-2010 Saturn Outlook, a failing Body Control Module (BCM) is often the culprit. As the central command center for your vehicle’s body electronics—controlling everything from power windows and door locks to interior lighting and the security system—its failure can create a cascade of issues. This isn’t just an inconvenience; it can affect your vehicle’s security and daily usability. This replacement BCM, part number 15837419, is the definitive solution to get your Outlook operating correctly again.

Is Your Outlook Showing These Symptoms?

A faulty BCM can manifest in numerous ways. Over my 20+ years in diagnostics, I’ve seen these modules cause some of the most confusing problems. Look out for these common signs of failure:

• ✔ Power windows, door locks, or mirrors not working or acting erratically.
• ✔ Interior or exterior lights flickering, staying on, or not turning on at all.
• ✔ The security system engaging randomly, causing a no-start condition.
• ✔ Inconsistent or non-functional remote keyless entry.
• ✔ Warning lights on the dashboard (like the airbag or service vehicle light) appearing without a clear cause.
• ✔ Diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) related to communication, such as U0140 (Lost Communication With Body Control Module).

The Power of Our Cloning Service

The biggest headache with replacing a BCM is the need for expensive, dealer-only programming. Our unique cloning service eliminates this step entirely. Here’s how it works: you send us your original, faulty BCM. We then transfer its specific vehicle data—including VIN, mileage, and key information—directly onto this replacement unit. We ship both your original module and the ready-to-install replacement back to you. The result is a true plug-and-play solution. You can install it yourself and get back on the road without any additional programming fees or hassle. This is the most efficient and cost-effective way to replace a failed 2007-2010 Outlook BCM.

A Straightforward Guide to Installation

For the handy DIYer, swapping the BCM is a manageable job. On the Saturn Outlook, the BCM is typically located in the center dash area, often accessible by removing lower dash panels.

1. Safety First: Always disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery and wait a few minutes for the systems to discharge completely.
2. Locate the BCM: Access the Body Control Module. In the 2007-2010 Outlook, this is usually behind the glove box or in the center console/dash area. You may need to remove a few trim panels to see it clearly.
3. Disconnect and Remove: Carefully unplug the electrical connectors from the old BCM. They have locking tabs that need to be depressed. Once disconnected, unbolt or unclip the module from its mounting bracket.
4. Install the New Module: Mount the replacement BCM in the same location and securely reconnect all electrical connectors. You should hear a ‘click’ as they lock into place.
5. Reconnect and Test: Reconnect the negative battery terminal. Turn the key to the ‘On’ position and test all body functions: windows, locks, lights, wipers, and radio to ensure everything is working as it should.

Important Post-Installation Notes

While our cloning service makes this a plug-and-play repair, some vehicle systems may require a relearn procedure after the new 2007-2010 Outlook BCM is installed. This is normal.

• Airbag System Sync: If your airbag warning light is illuminated after installation, a professional scan tool is needed to perform the “Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM” procedure. This syncs the airbag system with the new BCM.
• Brake Pedal Position Relearn: Some models may require this recalibration to ensure brake lights and stability control systems function correctly.

Disclaimer: Vehicle systems vary. Always refer to a factory service manual or consult with a qualified technician if you are unsure about any step.
