Installation and Post-Install Procedures
While this module is designed for a straightforward swap, some vehicle systems may require a relearn procedure after installation to ensure perfect synchronization. Please be aware of the following potential requirements:
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is illuminated after installing the new BCM, 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: To ensure correct brake light operation and traction control function, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration may be necessary on some models.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Body Control Module (BCM)?
The BCM is a computer in your vehicle that controls and monitors a wide variety of electronic body accessories, such as power windows, locks, lights, security systems, and more. It’s the command center for passenger comfort and convenience features.
Do I need to get this BCM programmed?
No. The main benefit of our service is that we program the module to your vehicle’s specific VIN before we ship it. This means it’s ready for installation upon arrival, saving you a trip to the dealer.
How do I provide my VIN number?
After you complete your purchase, you will receive instructions on how to send us your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN. We cannot program and ship the module without it.
What if my airbag light is on after I install the part?
This is a known possibility. The new BCM needs to be electronically introduced to the airbag system. A qualified 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 BCM?
No, there is no core charge for this part. You can keep your original module.
