Restore Your Truck’s Electrical System and Drive with Confidence
Are you battling frustrating and unpredictable electrical problems in your 2010 Chevrolet Avalanche? Flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows and locks, a security system that acts up, or strange warning messages on your dash are all classic signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM is the central nervous system for your truck’s body electronics, and when it fails, it can feel like your vehicle has a mind of its own. This isn’t just an annoyance—it can be a serious issue affecting your vehicle’s usability and security. Stop chasing down individual symptoms and address the root cause with our direct-fit, professionally programmed BCM.
Common Symptoms & Your Solution
If you’re experiencing any of the following, a faulty BCM is the likely culprit. This module is the definitive solution for:

- The security system engaging randomly or preventing the engine from starting (PassLock/PassKey issues)
- Erratic instrument cluster behavior or warning lights
- Remote keyless entry failure
- Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) related to communication or body electronics

Expert Insight: The Pre-Programming Difference
As a technician with over 20 years of experience, I’ve seen countless vehicle owners get stuck after buying a used BCM from a salvage yard. They think they’re saving money, but the module is useless without being programmed to their specific vehicle—a service only a dealer or high-end shop can perform, often for hundreds of dollars. Our service bridges that gap. We provide a fully tested module and handle the complex programming on our bench, using the same tools as the dealership. You get a part that is truly ready for your vehicle, turning a complicated electronic repair into a much more manageable installation.
Don’t let electrical gremlins dictate when and how you use your truck. Take control of the repair with a reliable, professionally programmed 2010 Avalanche 1500 BCM and get your vehicle operating the way it was designed to. This is the smart, effective solution for restoring your peace of mind.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where do I provide my VIN?
After you complete your purchase, you will need to send us your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). We cannot program and ship the module without it. Please double-check it for accuracy to ensure a perfect match.
Is this a difficult part to install?
For the 2010 Avalanche, the BCM is typically located under the steering column. Installation is moderately easy for someone with basic mechanical skills. It involves removing a few dash panels and connectors. The key benefit of our service is that the difficult programming step is already done for you.
Will I need to do anything after installation?
In some cases, yes. As noted, you may need to perform an ‘Airbag System Sync’ or ‘Brake Pedal Position Relearn’ with a professional scan tool if you get specific warning lights after install. These are standard procedures when a BCM is replaced and are required for the new module to sync with all vehicle systems.
Is this BCM new or used?
This is a quality, tested component that has been expertly prepared for your vehicle. We ensure every module is 100% functional and ready for service before programming it with your vehicle’s specific software.
Will this fix my ‘Service StabiliTrak’ message?
While a faulty BCM can contribute to StabiliTrak and traction control warnings, those messages can also be caused by other components like wheel speed sensors or the steering angle sensor. This BCM will fix the issue if, and only if, the BCM itself is the source of the fault.
Does this fit other vehicles besides the 2010 Avalanche?
Yes, absolutely. This BCM, part number 15828601, is compatible with a very large range of GM cars, trucks, and vans. Please see the detailed fitment list on this page to confirm it matches your specific make, model, and year.
