Is Your 2010 Camaro Experiencing Strange Electrical Problems?
If your 2010 Chevrolet Camaro, Buick Allure, or LaCrosse is suddenly acting possessed—with flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows, a security light that won’t turn off, or even a no-start condition—the culprit is often a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM is the central nervous system for your vehicle’s electronics, and when it fails, it can cause a cascade of frustrating and seemingly unrelated issues. A trip to the dealership often results in a hefty bill for a new module and expensive programming fees. We offer a simple, cost-effective solution.
This listing is for a replacement BCM, part number 13577268, that comes fully programmed with your vehicle’s original data. By cloning the information from your factory BCM, we provide a true plug-and-play module. This process ensures that all your vehicle’s specific settings, key information, and security data are retained, eliminating the need for any additional programming or calibration at a dealership. Simply install the module, and you’re ready to go.
Common Symptoms of a Failing BCM
- ✔ Erratic or non-functional interior and exterior lights (headlights, dome lights, dash lights).
- ✔ Power windows, door locks, or mirrors not working correctly.
- ✔ Vehicle security system issues, including a persistent anti-theft light or inability to start.
- ✔ Horn honking randomly or not working at all.
- ✔ Wipers activating on their own or not responding to the switch.
- ✔ False warnings on the instrument cluster (e.g., ‘door ajar’ light).
- ✔ Communication errors with other vehicle modules (DTCs U-codes).

Important Post-Installation Information
While our goal is a 100% plug-and-play experience, certain vehicle systems may require a ‘handshake’ with the new BCM. Please be aware of the following potential procedures:
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is illuminated after installation, a ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure is necessary. This requires a professional-grade diagnostic tool to sync the airbag system with the BCM and clear the light.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: In some cases, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration might be needed to ensure correct brake light operation and traction control functionality.
Disclaimer: Specific procedures can vary. Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician for guidance.
Frequently Asked Questions
What if my original BCM is completely dead or unreadable?
In most cases, even if the BCM has failed, the core data on the memory chip is still intact and readable. If for some reason we cannot read your module, we will contact you to discuss options, which may include programming with your VIN and providing instructions for key relearn procedures.
Is this a simple plug-and-play installation?
Yes, for over 95% of installations. Because we clone your original data, the vehicle will recognize the replacement BCM as its own. This eliminates the need for dealer programming. In rare cases, a simple relearn procedure as outlined above may be required.
How long does the programming service take?
Once we receive your original module, our cloning and testing process typically takes 1-2 business days. We will then ship the programmed replacement module back to you.
Do I need to send my keys with the module?
No, you do not need to send your keys. All the necessary immobilizer and key data is stored within your original BCM, and we transfer that information directly to the replacement unit.
Will this fix my specific problem?
This service corrects issues caused by a faulty BCM. It is crucial to properly diagnose the problem before ordering. If your vehicle’s issues are caused by wiring, sensors, or other modules, replacing the BCM will not solve the problem.
