Restore Full Electrical Function to Your GM Truck
Are you battling frustrating electrical gremlins in your truck? Intermittent wipers, flickering lights, unresponsive power windows, or a dead HVAC system are common signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM is the central command center for your vehicle’s body electronics, and when it fails, it can cause a cascade of confusing and unpredictable issues. This genuine OEM-quality GM Body Control Module, part number 25835965, is the definitive solution for your 2007-2013 GM truck or SUV, including the Chevrolet Silverado, GMC Sierra, Tahoe, and Escalade.
We recently had a 2009 Silverado 2500 in the shop with a classic case of BCM failure. The owner had already replaced the blower motor resistor and the main HVAC control head, but the air conditioning would still cut out randomly. A scan showed communication loss codes with multiple modules. Instead of continuing to chase individual components, we identified the BCM as the root cause. After installing a VIN-programmed module like this one, all systems returned to normal. It saved the customer hundreds in further diagnostic fees and parts guesswork.
Is Your Silverado 3500 BCM Failing?
A faulty BCM can manifest in numerous ways. If you’re experiencing any of the following, it’s time to consider a replacement:
- ✔ Unresponsive or erratic power windows, door locks, or interior lights.
- ✔ HVAC blower motor that works intermittently or not at all.
- ✔ Illuminated airbag warning light, often with DTC B1001.
- ✔ Malfunctioning security system, leading to no-start conditions.
- ✔ Inoperative windshield wipers or washers.
- ✔ A variety of seemingly unrelated diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs).

Installation and Post-Install Procedures
The BCM is typically located under the driver’s side dashboard, near the steering column. The physical replacement is straightforward and can often be completed in minutes. However, please be aware of potential post-installation steps:
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is illuminated after installation, a ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure is necessary. This requires a professional-grade scan tool to synchronize 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 stability control operation.
