Restore Full Electronic Functionality to Your GM Vehicle
Is your 2010 Cadillac Escalade ESV or other GM vehicle plagued by bizarre electrical problems? Issues like flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows and locks, a faulty security system, or even a no-start condition often point to a single culprit: a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM is the central nervous system for your vehicle’s body electronics, and when it fails, it can cause a cascade of frustrating and seemingly unrelated symptoms. This module is your direct-fit, VIN-programmed solution to restore order and get your vehicle operating as it should.
Common Symptoms of a Failing BCM
- ✔ Erratic or non-functional interior and exterior lights.
- ✔ Power windows, door locks, or mirrors not working correctly.
- ✔ The security system or keyless entry system malfunctioning.
- ✔ The instrument cluster displaying incorrect information or warning lights.
- ✔ The engine failing to crank or start due to security system lock-out.
- ✔ HVAC (heating and air conditioning) controls not responding.

Post-Installation Information
While this module is delivered ready for installation, some vehicles may require minor post-installation procedures to ensure all systems are perfectly synced. These are not always necessary but are important to be aware of:
- Airbag System Sync: If your 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 required to ensure proper operation of the brake lights and traction control system.
Please note: 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 (BCM) do?
The BCM is a computer that manages and controls many of your vehicle’s non-engine related electronic features, such as power windows, locks, lights, security system, wipers, and HVAC controls.
Do I need to get this BCM programmed by a dealer?
No. We handle the programming for you before we ship the part. Just provide your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN at checkout, and we will flash the module with the correct software for your specific vehicle.
Where is the BCM located on a 2010 Cadillac Escalade ESV?
On the 2010 Escalade ESV, the Body Control Module is typically located under the driver’s side dashboard, near the steering column.
What happens if I install this without providing my VIN?
The module will not function correctly. The programming is essential as it contains information about your vehicle’s specific options and security settings. We cannot ship the part without your VIN.
Is this a simple plug-and-play installation?
For the most part, yes. You disconnect the old module and connect the new one. However, as noted, some vehicles may require additional relearn procedures for the airbag or brake systems, which may require a professional diagnostic tool.
