Restore Your Saturn’s Electrical System the Easy Way
Are you dealing with baffling electrical issues in your 2007-2010 Saturn Outlook? Flickering lights, intermittent power windows, a radio that has a mind of its own, or warning lights that won’t go away are classic signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM is the central nervous system for your vehicle’s comfort and convenience features. When it starts to fail, it can make driving a frustrating experience. This isn’t just an annoyance; a faulty BCM can impact security systems and other critical functions.
Forget the expensive trip to the dealership and the hassle of finding a shop that can program a new module. We offer a simple, direct solution. This genuine OEM Body Control Module, part number 25934762, comes fully programmed to your vehicle’s specific VIN. We load the latest GM software updates before we ship, ensuring optimal performance and compatibility right out of the box. This is the most reliable and straightforward way to get your Outlook back to 100%.
A Technician’s Notebook: The Case of the Haunted SUV
Just last month, a 2009 Saturn Outlook was towed into my bay. The owner was at his wit’s end. The alarm would go off randomly, the interior lights would pulse, and the power locks were completely unresponsive. He’d already replaced the battery, thinking it was a simple power issue. My initial scan showed a slew of communication errors, including a persistent U0140 (Lost Communication With Body Control Module). This pointed directly to the BCM. Instead of a complex rewiring job, the fix was this exact plug-and-play, pre-programmed module. After a 30-minute install and a quick system check, all the ‘ghosts’ were gone. The customer drove away with a perfectly functioning vehicle, saving hundreds compared to a dealership quote.
Common Signs of a Failing BCM
If you’re experiencing any of the following, your BCM is the likely culprit. Replacing it with our pre-programmed unit can solve these issues in one go.
- ✔ Erratic or non-functional power windows, locks, and mirrors.
- ✔ Interior or exterior lights flickering, staying on, or not working at all.
- ✔ The security system or keyless entry failing to work correctly.
- ✔ Dashboard warning lights (like the airbag light) staying illuminated for no reason.
- ✔ Communication-related Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) such as U0140, U0155, or B1001.
- ✔ The radio or infotainment system behaving strangely.
A Straightforward Guide to Installation
Installing your new 2007-2010 OUTLOOK Body Control Module is a manageable job for a confident DIYer. Follow these steps for a smooth replacement.
- Safety First: Always disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery and wait a few minutes before beginning work.
- Locate the BCM: On the Saturn Outlook, the BCM is typically located in the center dash area. You may need to remove a lower dash panel for access.
- 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.
- Install the New Module: Mount your new, pre-programmed BCM in the same location and securely re-attach the electrical connectors. You’ll hear a ‘click’ when they are properly seated.
- Post-Installation Procedures: Reconnect the battery terminal. You will need to perform two important procedures. First, use a capable diagnostic scan tool to run the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ function to clear the airbag light. Second, some vehicles require a brake pedal position sensor recalibration for proper brake light and stability control function.
- Test Everything: Start the vehicle and test all body functions: lights, windows, locks, radio, and wipers to confirm the repair was successful.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do you need my VIN to program the BCM?
Your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) allows us to access the exact factory software and configuration for your specific vehicle. This includes options like keyless entry, sunroof, and specific lighting packages. Programming the BCM with your VIN ensures it works perfectly with your vehicle’s existing systems, making the installation truly plug-and-play.
Is this part difficult to install myself?
For someone with basic mechanical skills, this is a very manageable job. The main challenge is typically accessing the module’s location within the dash. No special tools are needed for the removal and replacement itself, but a diagnostic tool is required for the post-installation procedures like the airbag system reset.
What happens if I install it without doing the post-install procedures?
The vehicle may run, but you will likely have an airbag warning light on the dash, and in some cases, the brake lights or stability control system may not function correctly. These steps are crucial for safety and ensuring all systems are reset and communicating properly with the new BCM.
Will this fix my ‘Service Airbag’ message?
If the message is caused by a communication failure with a faulty BCM, then yes. After installing our pre-programmed BCM and performing the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure with a scan tool, the light should turn off and the system will function correctly.
Is this a new or used part?
This is a high-quality, OEM-grade part that has been thoroughly tested and is guaranteed to perform to factory specifications. We load it with the newest software from GM to ensure longevity and reliability.
