Installation and Required Procedures
Physically installing the BCM is straightforward. It’s located under the driver’s side dashboard and can typically be swapped in under 15 minutes. While it’s a plug-and-play part, be aware of potential post-installation steps. If the airbag warning light comes on, the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure must be performed with a professional diagnostic tool to sync the system. Depending on your model, a Brake Pedal Position Relearn may also be necessary to ensure proper brake light and traction control function. Always consult a factory service manual for guidance specific to your vehicle.
Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly does the Body Control Module do?
The BCM is a computer that manages many of your vehicle’s non-engine related electronic systems. This includes power windows, door locks, interior and exterior lighting, the security system, wipers, and the HVAC climate control system.
Do I need to take my vehicle to a dealer after installing this?
No! This is the key benefit of our service. We pre-program the module to your vehicle’s VIN before shipping. It arrives ready for a plug-and-play installation, saving you time and the high cost of dealership programming.
Is this part difficult to install?
For most DIYers, the installation is simple. The BCM is typically located under the driver’s side dashboard, near the steering column, and is held in by a few clips or bolts. It usually takes less than 15 minutes to swap out.
My airbag light is on after installing the new BCM. Is the part defective?
No, this is a known GM security procedure. The new BCM needs to be electronically ‘introduced’ to the airbag system’s computer (SDM). This requires a professional scan tool with the ability to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ function to sync the modules and clear the light.
Do I need to return my old BCM?
No, there is no core charge for this part. You can keep your old module without any hassle or extra fees.
