Is Your 2010 Yukon Acting Possessed?
Are you dealing with flickering lights, power windows with a mind of their own, or a security light that won’t turn off? Maybe your remote keyless entry works intermittently, or worse, the truck intermittently refuses to start. Before you start chasing wires for days, the problem is very likely a failing Body Control Module (BCM). In my 20+ years as a diagnostician, I’ve seen this exact scenario play out on hundreds of GM trucks. The BCM is the central hub for your vehicle’s body electronics, and when it fails, it creates a cascade of frustrating and seemingly unrelated electrical gremlins.

You get a fully functional BCM without the time, cost, and hassle of a trip to the dealer.
Expert Pro Tip: Check This Before You Order
From my experience in the shop, a common issue that mimics BCM failure on these GMT900 platforms (Yukon, Tahoe, Suburban, etc.) is a poor ground connection. Before replacing the module, take ten minutes to check the main body ground located under the driver’s side A-pillar kick panel. A loose or corroded ground here can cause all sorts of bizarre electrical issues. Cleaning and tightening this connection can sometimes solve the problem, and it’s a free check that’s well worth your time.
Common Symptoms of a Failing BCM:
- โ Erratic or non-functional interior/exterior lights
- โ Power windows or door locks not working correctly
- โ Malfunctioning remote keyless entry
- โ Security system faults or anti-theft light staying on
- โ Communication error codes with other modules (U-codes)
- โ Intermittent no-start or no-crank conditions
- โ Gauges behaving strangely or not working at all
Plug-and-Play Installation: Get Your Yukon Back to Normal
Replacing the BCM on your 2010 Yukon is a straightforward job you can do in your own garage. The module is typically located under the steering column, to the left of the brake pedal.
- Safety First: Always disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery before working on any electronic components.
- Locate the BCM: On your Yukon, find the BCM attached to a bracket under the driver’s side dashboard.
- Disconnect and Remove: Carefully unplug the electrical connectors. They have locking tabs, so be gentle. Then, unbolt or unclip the old module from its mounting location.
- Install the New Module: Mount your new, pre-programmed BCM in the same spot and securely reconnect all the electrical connectors. You should hear a ‘click’ as they lock into place.
- Reconnect Battery: Reattach the negative battery terminal.
Important Post-Installation Steps
Because this module communicates with critical safety systems, a couple of final procedures are necessary after installation to ensure everything works as intended. This is standard for any BCM replacement.
- Airbag System (SRS): The airbag warning light will likely be on. A ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure must be performed using a compatible bi-directional scan tool to sync the new BCM with the airbag system and clear the light.
- Brake Pedal Position Sensor: Some vehicles require a brake pedal position sensor recalibration to ensure proper brake light operation and stability control function. This is also done with a professional scan tool.
These procedures are quick for any competent mechanic or a DIYer with the right tool. This process is far simpler and more affordable than having a dealer install and program a blank module from scratch.
