The Body Control Module (BCM) is the central command center for your 2010 Cadillac Escalade EXT’s body electronics. It governs a wide range of functions, including power windows, door locks, interior lighting, the security system, and more. When the BCM begins to fail, it can create a host of bizarre and unpredictable electrical problems that can be difficult to diagnose. This replacement Body Control Module is the definitive solution, arriving pre-programmed to your vehicle’s VIN to restore flawless operation and get you back on the road with confidence.

- ✔ Intermittent operation of the radio, climate controls, or instrument cluster gauges.

Plug-and-Play Solution
Forget expensive dealership visits for programming. We simplify the repair process by programming this module to your vehicle’s specific 17-digit VIN before we ship it. This ensures that the BCM is loaded with the latest GM software updates and is ready to integrate seamlessly with your truck’s existing electronic systems. This critical step is included with your purchase.
Important Post-Installation Notes:
While our programming handles the majority of the setup, some vehicles may require additional relearn procedures after installation. These are typically performed with a professional-grade scan tool.
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is illuminated after installation, a procedure called ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ is necessary to sync the airbag system with the new BCM.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: On some models, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration may be needed to ensure correct brake light and traction control operation.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I provide my VIN for programming?
After completing your purchase, please send us a message with your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). We must have your VIN to program and ship your module.
Is this part difficult to install?
The physical installation is typically straightforward, as the BCM is usually located under the steering column or dash. However, as mentioned, some vehicles may require post-installation electronic procedures with a scan tool for full functionality.
Will this fix my vehicle’s specific problem?
This module will correct any issue caused by a faulty BCM. While the symptoms we’ve listed are very common, we always recommend having a qualified technician perform a full vehicle diagnosis to confirm the BCM is the source of the problem before ordering.
What happens if I install this without programming?
An unprogrammed BCM will not work. It will not recognize your vehicle’s security information, options, or other computers. This will likely result in a no-start condition and multiple warning lights. Our pre-programming service prevents these issues.
Do I need to return my old BCM?
No. This part has no core charge, so you are not required to send your old module back to us.
