Restore Full Electrical Function to Your GM Vehicle
Are you battling strange and frustrating electrical problems in your van or SUV? Flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows and locks, a security system that acts up, or even a vehicle that refuses to 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 confusing issues. This replacement Body Control Module is the definitive solution, arriving pre-programmed with the latest GM software specifically for your vehicle’s VIN.
Common Symptoms of a Failing BCM
- ✔ Erratic or non-functional interior and exterior lights.
- ✔ Power windows, door locks, or mirrors not working correctly.
- ✔ Malfunctioning security system or keyless entry.
- ✔ Instrument cluster gauges behaving erratically or not working at all.
- ✔ Unexplained battery drain when the vehicle is off.
- ✔ Intermittent no-start condition where the engine cranks but won’t fire.
- ✔ Warning lights such as the airbag or brake light staying on.

Installation and Post-Install Procedures
While installation is primarily plug-and-play, some modern vehicles require a few simple relearn procedures to ensure all systems communicate correctly after the new BCM is installed. Please be aware of the following potential steps:
- Airbag System Sync: If your airbag warning light illuminates after installation, a professional scan tool is needed to perform the “Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM” procedure. This syncs the new BCM with the airbag system.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: On some models, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration may be necessary to ensure proper brake light and traction control operation.
Note: No core charge is required. You can keep your old module. Please verify your part number and check the extensive fitment list to ensure compatibility with your vehicle.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Body Control Module (BCM) do?
The BCM acts as the brain for your vehicle’s body electronics. It controls non-engine related functions like power windows, locks, lights, wipers, the security system, and the instrument cluster.
Will I need to have this module programmed by a dealer?
No. This BCM comes pre-programmed to your vehicle’s specific VIN before we ship it. This saves you the time, hassle, and expense of a dealership visit.
How do I provide my VIN number?
After you complete your purchase, you will need to send us your 17-digit VIN. We will contact you with instructions, or you can message it to us directly with your order number. We cannot ship the module until we have programmed it.
Is this a simple plug-and-play part?
For most functions, yes. However, as with any BCM replacement, some vehicles may require additional relearn procedures for systems like the airbags or brake pedal position sensor, which may require a professional scan tool.
My part number isn’t 10382479, but it’s in the list. Will this work?
Yes. The part numbers listed are all interchangeable. We will program this module to function correctly for any of the compatible part numbers and vehicles listed.
