Common Issues & How This Fixes Them
In my two decades of working on GM vehicles, I’ve encountered countless 2010 Escalade owners frustrated by BCM failures. A common symptom is erratic door locks or power accessories that fail intermittentlyโoften due to internal corrosion or software glitches from exposure to moisture during off-road adventures. This can trigger DTC B2955, indicating a security system fault, leading to no-start conditions that leave you calling for a tow. Another frequent issue is interior lights staying on or headlights flickering, caused by voltage irregularities in the module, which drains the battery overnight and points to codes like U0140 for lost communication. Picture hauling gear for a weekend getaway only to find your Escalade’s alarm system falsely activating, a direct result of degraded BCM circuitry. Replacing with this programmed unit resolves these by resetting the system’s core logic, restoring smooth operation. For instance, it fixes DTC B1370 related to ignition switch problems, ensuring reliable starts even in cold weather. Expert tip: Before swapping, scan for codes with an OBD-II tool to confirm the BCM is the culprit, avoiding misdiagnosis. This approach not only solves the immediate problem but prevents cascading failures in connected components like the instrument cluster.
Easy Installation Guide
- Provide your VIN after purchase so we can program the BCM with the latest GM updates tailored to your 2010 Escalade.
- Disconnect the battery to ensure safety and prevent electrical shorts during the process.
- Locate the BCM under the steering column in your Escaladeโremove any panels or brackets securing it.

- Reconnect the battery and perform a theft deterrent relearn if a no-start occurs: Insert the key, turn to ON for 10 minutes, off for 5 seconds, and repeat three times until the security light turns off.
- Test all functions like lights, locks, and windows to verify everything operates smoothly, then clear any residual codes with a scan tool.
