Restore Full Electronic Functionality to Your 2010 Escalade
Are you experiencing frustrating and unpredictable electrical issues in your 2010 Cadillac Escalade? A failing Body Control Module, or BCM, is often the culprit behind these perplexing problems. The BCM acts as the central nervous system for your vehicle’s body electronics, managing everything from power windows and locks to interior lighting and the security system. When it fails, it can cause a cascade of issues that are difficult to diagnose.
This is a direct-fit replacement Body Control Module for your 2010 Escalade. To make your repair as simple as possible, we program the module to your vehicle’s specific VIN before it ships. This eliminates the need for an expensive trip to the dealership for programming. Simply provide your VIN at checkout, and you’ll receive a part that is ready for installation right out of the box.
From the Diagnostic Bay
We had a 2010 Escalade roll in with the owner at his wit’s end. The dome lights would flicker, the driver’s side window would work intermittently, and the radio would randomly shut off. He’d replaced the battery and checked fuses, but the gremlins persisted. After a quick network scan, we isolated the issue to a faulty BCM. Instead of a costly and time-consuming dealer visit, we installed one of our VIN-programmed modules. The installation was straightforward, and within an hour, all the strange electrical issues were gone. The customer was thrilled to have his luxury SUV back to normal without the dealership hassle.
Symptoms of a Failing 2010 Escalade Body Control Module
- ✔ Power windows, door locks, or mirrors operating erratically or not at all.
- ✔ Interior or exterior lights flickering, staying on, or not turning on.
- ✔ The vehicle’s security system malfunctioning or preventing the engine from starting.
- ✔ Horn honking unexpectedly or not working when pressed.
- ✔ Dashboard warning lights appearing for seemingly unrelated systems.
- ✔ Wipers activating on their own or not responding to the switch.
- ✔ Communication errors with other vehicle modules (DTCs).
Installation and Post-Install Notes
While this module is designed for a straightforward installation, some vehicles may require additional steps after the BCM is connected. These are known as ‘relearn’ or ‘synchronization’ procedures.
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is illuminated 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 correct brake light operation and to prevent issues with the traction control system.
Disclaimer: Specific procedures can vary. Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician for guidance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Body Control Module do on my Escalade?
The BCM is a computer that controls the majority of your vehicle’s non-engine related electronic features, such as power windows, locks, lights, wipers, security system, and more.
Do I need to program this BCM?
No. We pre-program the module to your vehicle’s VIN before we ship it to you. This makes the installation process much simpler and avoids a trip to the dealer.
How 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 ship your part until we receive this information for programming.
What if my airbag light turns on after I install it?
This is a possibility. It means the new BCM needs to be electronically introduced to the airbag system. A technician with a professional diagnostic tool will need to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure to resolve this.
Is there a core charge for my old part?
No, there is no core charge for this module. You can keep your original part.
