Restore Full Electronic Functionality to Your GM Vehicle
Is your 2010 Cadillac SRX, Chevy Equinox, or GMC Terrain suffering from bizarre electrical problems? The Body Control Module (BCM) is the central command center for your vehicle’s body electronics, and when it fails, it can lead to a host of frustrating and unpredictable issues. This listing is for a replacement BCM, part number 13504494 (and compatible part numbers listed below), that comes fully programmed with your vehicle’s original data. This is not just a part; it’s a complete, plug-and-play solution that eliminates the need for expensive dealership programming.
From the Diagnostic Bay
We recently had a 2010 GMC Terrain in the shop with a classic case of BCM failure. The owner reported that the power locks would cycle randomly while driving, the interior dome light wouldn’t turn off, and the remote key fob worked only intermittently. After confirming power and grounds were good, we scanned the vehicle and found multiple communication loss codes with the BCM. Instead of a costly trip to the dealer for a new module and programming, we used this exact cloning service. By transferring the data from the old, faulty unit to the replacement, the vehicle was back to normal in no time. All the strange electrical gremlins were gone, and the customer saved hundreds of dollars.
Common Symptoms of a Failing BCM
- ✔ Erratic or non-functional power windows, door locks, or mirrors.
- ✔ Interior or exterior lights staying on, flickering, or not working at all.
- ✔ Vehicle security system acting up or preventing the car from starting.
- ✔ Instrument cluster warning lights appearing for no reason.
- ✔ Remote keyless entry (fob) failure.
- ✔ Wipers or horn activating unexpectedly.
- ✔ Complete loss of communication with the diagnostic scan tool.

This service is designed for a seamless repair, getting you back on the road safely and quickly.
Installation and Post-Install Procedures
After installing your programmed BCM, a couple of system synchronization procedures may be necessary. These are standard for this type of repair and can often be performed by a qualified independent shop if you are not equipped to do so yourself.
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is illuminated after installation, a procedure called ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ must be performed with a professional scan tool. This syncs the new BCM with the airbag system. This is only required if the light is on.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: On some models, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration might be needed to ensure correct brake light operation and to keep the traction control system happy.
Disclaimer: Specific procedures can vary by vehicle. Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician for guidance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a BCM cloning service?
It’s a process where we extract the unique, vehicle-specific data from your original BCM and transfer it to a replacement unit. This makes the replacement module plug-and-play, as it already contains your vehicle’s VIN, key information, and other settings, avoiding the need for dealership programming.
How long does the entire process take?
Once we receive your original BCM, our programming service typically takes 1-2 business days. The total time will depend on shipping times to and from our facility. We always ship the programmed module back promptly and provide tracking.
Do I need to program this BCM after I receive it?
No. The main benefit of our service is that the BCM arrives at your door fully programmed and ready for installation. You will not need to take it to a dealer for programming. However, you may need to perform minor relearn procedures as mentioned above.
What if my original BCM is completely dead or water damaged?
In many cases, even if the BCM is not functioning in the vehicle, we can still extract the necessary data directly from the memory chip. Please contact us before ordering if your module has severe water or fire damage.
Where is the BCM located on my 2010 Cadillac SRX?
On the 2010 Cadillac SRX, the Body Control Module is typically located on the left-hand (driver’s) side of the dashboard, often behind the lower dash panel or kick panel.
Will my existing keys work with the programmed BCM?
Yes. Because we are cloning your original data, all key information is transferred over. Your existing keys will work just as they did before, with no need for reprogramming.
