Tired of Chasing Electrical Gremlins?
Is your vehicle acting possessed? Flickering dashboard lights, power windows with a mind of their own, a security system that won’t cooperate, or a battery that mysteriously drains overnight are all classic signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM is the central command center for your vehicle’s body electronics. When it starts to fail, it can cause a cascade of confusing and frustrating problems, making your car unreliable and stressful to drive. It’s time to stop guessing and install a solution you can trust.

An Expert’s Note on BCM Replacement
“Over my 20 years in the shop, I’ve seen countless vehicle owners get stuck after buying a used BCM from a junkyard. They install it, and nothing worksโor worse, new problems appear. That’s because a BCM is like a fingerprint; it’s coded to the specific features and systems of the original vehicle. Our VIN programming service isn’t just a convenience, it’s the essential step that makes the repair work. We bridge the gap between the part and your car, ensuring they speak the same language. This is the difference between a frustrating weekend and a successful, lasting repair.”
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is VIN programming so important for a BCM?
The Body Control Module communicates with nearly every other computer in your vehicle. Programming it to your specific VIN ensures it knows your car’s exact optionsโlike power seats, sunroof, security system, and more. Without proper programming, these features will not function correctly, and you may get error codes. Our service handles this for you, so it works right out of the box.
How do I provide my VIN number?
After you complete your purchase, simply send us a message with your 17-digit VIN. We cannot ship your order until we receive this information, as the programming is a required step. You can typically find your VIN on your vehicle’s registration, insurance card, or on a small plate on the driver’s side of the dashboard visible through the windshield.
Will I need to perform any procedures after installation?
In some cases, yes. Depending on your specific model, you may need a professional scan tool to perform a ‘Brake Pedal Position Relearn’ or an ‘SDM Primary Key Setup’ if the airbag light comes on. These are standard GM procedures required to sync the new BCM with other vehicle systems.
Is this the correct part for my vehicle?
This module replaces a wide range of GM part numbers, including 10382479, 15819552, 20815898, and many more. Please check the extensive fitment list on this page. If your vehicle and original part number are listed, this Programmed 2008-2010 Saturn VUE BCM is the correct, pre-programmed part for you.
What if my airbag light is on after installing the BCM?
If the airbag warning light is illuminated after installation, it means the new BCM needs to be synchronized with your vehicle’s airbag system (SDM). A qualified technician with a professional-grade diagnostic tool will need to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure to resolve this.
