Restore Full Electronic Functionality to Your GM Vehicle
Are you battling bizarre and frustrating electrical problems in your Saturn Vue, Chevy Equinox, or GMC Acadia? Flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows, a security system that acts up, or even a car that won’t start can all point to a single culprit: 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 seemingly unrelated issues. This VIN-programmed Body Control Module is the definitive solution, designed to restore your vehicle’s systems to perfect working order.
Common Symptoms of a Failing BCM
- ✔ Erratic or non-functional interior and exterior lights.
- ✔ Power windows, locks, or mirrors not working correctly.
- ✔ Horn sounding unexpectedly or not at all.
- ✔ Vehicle security system faults or false alarms.
- ✔ Dashboard warning lights illuminating for no reason.
- ✔ Intermittent no-start or no-crank conditions.
- ✔ Problems with the heating and A/C blower motor controls.

Post-Installation Requirements
While this module is programmed for your VIN, some vehicles may require simple relearn procedures after installation. These are standard for many electronic repairs and can often be performed by a local mechanic with a capable diagnostic tool.
- Airbag System Sync: If your airbag warning light is on after installation, a technician will need to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure to sync the systems.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: On some models, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration may be needed to ensure proper brake light and traction control operation.
Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician for guidance specific to your vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a BCM and what does it do?
The Body Control Module (BCM) is a computer in your car that manages and controls electronic accessories like power windows, locks, lights, the security system, and more. It acts as a central hub for these functions.
How does the VIN programming work?
After you place your order, you provide us with your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). Our technicians use this number to load the exact, factory-correct software and settings for your specific vehicle onto the BCM before shipping it.
Is this part difficult to install?
The physical installation is typically straightforward for someone with basic mechanical skills. The BCM is often located under the dashboard. However, due to the potential need for post-installation relearn procedures (like for the airbag or brake systems), we recommend installation by a qualified mechanic.
Will this fix my specific electrical problem?
If your vehicle is exhibiting multiple symptoms from the list above, a faulty BCM is a very likely cause. While we cannot diagnose your vehicle remotely, this part is the correct solution for a confirmed BCM failure.
What happens if the airbag light comes on after installation?
This is a known possibility. It simply means the new BCM needs to be electronically introduced to the airbag’s computer (SDM). A mechanic with a professional scan tool can perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure to resolve this.
Is there a core charge for my old part?
No, there is no core charge for this module. You can keep your original part.
