Restore Full Functionality to Your GM Vehicle
Are you battling bizarre electrical issues in your 2008-2012 Express 2500 Van? Flickering dash lights, malfunctioning power windows and locks, or an intermittent no-start condition can be incredibly frustrating. These aren’t just annoyances; they’re classic signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM is the central command center for your vehicle’s body electronics, and when it falters, it can create a cascade of problems. This replacement BCM, part number 20864768, is the definitive solution to get your workhorse van or family vehicle operating reliably again.
Our unique cloning service makes this repair simpler and more affordable than ever. Instead of paying for expensive dealership programming and key relearns, you send us your original BCM. We transfer all the critical data—including your VIN, mileage, and key information—directly to this replacement unit. The module arrives at your door, programmed with the latest GM software updates and ready for a straightforward installation. This process ensures all your vehicle’s specific options and security settings are perfectly preserved.
From the Diagnostic Bay: The Case of the Ghostly Gremlins
I once had a 2011 Express 2500 from a local delivery company towed to my shop. The driver reported that some days it wouldn’t start, the radio would turn on by itself, and the power door locks had a mind of their own. Their previous mechanic had already replaced the battery and checked the alternator. My initial scan showed a slew of communication error codes (U-codes) pointing to the BCM. After confirming power and ground to the module were solid, it was clear the BCM itself was failing internally. We used this exact cloning service, and the replacement 2008-2012 Express 2500 BCM had the van back in service the next day with zero issues—a perfect fix that saved the company from costly downtime.
Is Your Vehicle Showing These Symptoms?
A failing BCM can manifest in numerous ways. If you’re experiencing any of the following, this module is likely the solution you need.
- ✔ Power windows, mirrors, or door locks operating erratically or not at all.
- ✔ Interior dome lights or dashboard lights staying on or not working.
- ✔ The security system preventing the vehicle from starting (blinking security light).
- ✔ The horn sounding unexpectedly or the panic alarm going off randomly.
- ✔ Inconsistent or non-functional heating and A/C controls.
- ✔ Communication error codes stored, such as U0140, U0155, or other U-codes.
- ✔ False warnings appearing on the driver information center.
A Straightforward Guide to Installation
Installing your cloned 2008-2012 Express 2500 BCM is a manageable job for a confident DIYer or any professional technician. The location can vary, but it’s often found in the center dash area on Express/Savana vans.
- Safety First: Always disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery before beginning any electrical work.
- Locate the BCM: On most Express and Savana vans, you will need to access the area behind the center dash or glove box to find the original BCM.
- Disconnect and Remove: Carefully unplug the electrical connectors from the old BCM. Note their orientation. Then, unbolt or unclip the module from its mounting bracket.
- Install the New Module: Mount the new, cloned BCM in the same location and securely re-attach the electrical connectors you just removed. Ensure they click into place.
- Reconnect and Test: Reconnect the negative battery terminal. Turn the key to the ‘ON’ position and test all body functions—windows, locks, lights, radio, etc.—to confirm the repair was successful.

Important Post-Installation Notes
While our cloning service handles the primary programming, some vehicle systems may require a ‘handshake’ with the new BCM. This is normal.
