Restore Full Electronic Functionality to Your GM Vehicle
Are you experiencing bizarre electrical issues in your truck or SUV? Flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows and locks, or a security system that has a mind of its own are common signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM acts as the central hub for your vehicle’s body electronics, and when it fails, it can cause a cascade of frustrating and unpredictable problems. This replacement Body Control Module, part number 15828601, is the definitive solution to restore order and reliability to your vehicle’s systems.
From the Diagnostic Bay
We had a 2010 GMC Yukon in the shop that was driving the owner crazy. The radio would turn off randomly, the dome lights would flicker while driving, and the remote key fob worked only intermittently. The owner had already replaced the battery and checked all the fuses. After connecting our diagnostic scanner, we saw multiple communication errors pointing towards the BCM. Instead of a costly trip to the dealer for a new module and programming, we installed one of our pre-programmed units. The installation took less than an hour, and instantly, all the strange electrical gremlins were gone. It’s a common story, and this part is the simple fix.
Symptoms of a Failing GM Body Control Module
- ✔ Erratic or non-functional power windows, door locks, and mirrors.
- ✔ Interior or exterior lights that stay on, flicker, or won’t turn on at all.
- ✔ The security system or alarm randomly activating or not working correctly.
- ✔ Instrument cluster gauges behaving erratically or warning lights appearing for no reason.
- ✔ Remote keyless entry (key fob) failure.
- ✔ Communication issues with other vehicle modules, leading to a no-start condition in some cases.

Important Post-Installation Information
While this module is designed for a straightforward installation, some vehicle systems may require a simple relearn procedure after the BCM is replaced. This is a normal part of the process.
- 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 proper brake light and traction control operation.
Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician if you are unsure about any step of the installation or relearn process.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Body Control Module (BCM) do?
The BCM is a computer that manages and controls many of your vehicle’s non-engine related electronic functions. This includes power windows, locks, lights, the security system, wipers, and various other comfort and convenience features.
Do I need to have this BCM programmed by a dealer?
No. The main benefit of our service is that we program the module for you before we ship it. Simply provide your vehicle’s VIN during or after checkout, and it will arrive ready to install.
Where is the BCM located on my 2010 GMC Yukon?
On the 2010 GMC Yukon, Tahoe, and similar GM SUVs, the Body Control Module is typically located under the driver’s side of the dashboard, near the steering column.
How do I provide my VIN?
You can add your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN to the notes section at checkout or send it to us in a message after you complete your purchase. We cannot ship your part until we receive the VIN.
What if the airbag light comes on after I install it?
This is not a defect. It simply means the BCM needs to be electronically introduced to the airbag system. A technician with a professional-grade scan tool can perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure to resolve this.
Is there a core charge?
No, there is no core charge for this part. You can keep your original module.
