Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to program this BCM after I receive it?
No. We program the module to your vehicle’s VIN before it is shipped. It will arrive ready for installation. In some cases, minor relearn procedures, such as for the brake pedal position sensor or airbag system, may be required after installation.
What information do you need from me?
After you place your order, you must provide us with your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN (Vehicle Identification Number). We cannot ship your part until we have this information to program the module correctly.
Where is the BCM located on a Savana 2500?
On the 2008-2012 GMC Savana and Chevrolet Express vans, the Body Control Module is typically located in the center dash area, often accessible by removing lower dash panels. Always disconnect the battery before attempting installation.
What if my airbag light comes on after installation?
If the airbag light is on, it means the new BCM needs to be synced with the airbag’s SDM (Sensing and Diagnostic Module). A procedure called ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ will need to be performed with a compatible high-end scan tool. This is a standard security procedure on many GM vehicles.
Will this part fit other vehicles besides the Savana?
Yes. This 2008-2012 Savana 2500 Body Control Module is a direct replacement for many GM vehicles from this era, including the Chevrolet Express, Acadia, Enclave, Traverse, Impala, Tahoe, and more. Please verify your original part number against the extensive list provided in the description to confirm compatibility.
