Restore Full Electrical Function to Your GM Vehicle
Is your 2010 GMC Yukon or other GM vehicle acting possessed? Flickering lights, a security system that won’t cooperate, power windows with a mind of their own, or worse—an intermittent no-start condition? Before you spend a fortune on diagnostic guesswork, the root cause is often a failing Body Control Module (BCM). As the central hub for your vehicle’s body electronics, when the BCM falters, it creates a cascade of frustrating and seemingly unrelated problems. This isn’t just an inconvenience; it can affect vehicle security and safety systems.
We offer a straightforward, reliable solution. This Body Control Module, compatible with part number 15880684 and many others, is the definitive fix. The best part? We handle the programming for you. Simply provide your vehicle’s VIN during checkout, and our technicians will flash the module with the latest GM software specific to your exact vehicle. This means no expensive trip to the dealership for programming. You receive a part that is truly ready for installation, saving you time, money, and headaches.
Case Study: A Tricky Diagnosis
A customer’s 2010 Yukon came into the shop last month with a laundry list of bizarre symptoms: the radio would shut off randomly, the interior dome lights would flicker while driving, and the remote key fob worked only intermittently. They had already replaced the battery and checked the main grounds with no success. A scan with a professional tool revealed multiple ‘U’ codes, which indicate a loss of communication between modules. In my 20+ years of experience, this pattern almost always points to a failing BCM. We installed one of our VIN-programmed modules, and within an hour, every single electrical gremlin was gone. The vehicle was back to perfect working order, saving the customer from further diagnostic dead ends.
Is Your Vehicle Showing These Symptoms?
- ✔ Power windows, door locks, or mirrors operating erratically or not at all.
- ✔ Interior or exterior lights flickering, staying on, or not turning on.
- ✔ The anti-theft or security system light is on, preventing the engine from starting.
- ✔ The instrument cluster gauges are behaving strangely or are completely dead.
- ✔ Remote keyless entry is unresponsive or works sporadically.
- ✔ Communication error codes (U-codes) stored in the system.
A Straightforward Guide to BCM Installation
Replacing the BCM is a manageable job for a DIYer with basic tools. On a 2010 Yukon, the BCM is typically located under the driver’s side of the dashboard, near the steering column.
- Safety First: Always disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery and wait at least 10 minutes before starting work.
- Locate the BCM: On most GMT900 platform trucks and SUVs (Yukon, Tahoe, Suburban), you’ll find the BCM mounted to a bracket to the left of the steering column. You may need to remove a lower dash panel for access.
- Disconnect Connectors: Carefully unplug all the electrical connectors from the old BCM. They have locking tabs that need to be depressed. Do not force them. Note their orientation for easier reinstallation.
- Remove the Old Module: Unbolt or unclip the old BCM from its mounting bracket.
- Install the New BCM: Mount your new, pre-programmed BCM in the same location.
- Reconnect Everything: Plug all electrical connectors firmly into the new module. Reconnect the negative battery terminal.
Critical Final Steps: After You Install
Because this is a pre-programmed module, most functions will work immediately. However, for full system integration and safety, two final procedures are often required. These steps are crucial and must not be skipped.
- Airbag System Reset: If the airbag warning light is on after installation, a ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure must be performed with a compatible high-level scan tool. This re-establishes the security handshake between the new BCM and the airbag module (SDM).
- Brake Pedal Position Sensor Relearn: Some vehicles require the Brake Pedal Position (BPP) sensor to be recalibrated after a BCM replacement. This ensures the brake lights and stability control system function correctly.
Note: If you are not equipped to perform these relearn procedures, a local qualified mechanic can typically complete them for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to program this 2010 Yukon Body Control Module?
No. We program the module to your vehicle’s specific VIN before shipping it to you. It arrives ready for installation, saving you a trip to the dealer.
What happens if I don’t provide my VIN?
Providing your VIN is mandatory for this part. We cannot program or ship the BCM without it, as it would not function correctly in your vehicle. Your order will be placed on hold until the VIN is received.
Where is the BCM located on my 2010 Yukon?
The BCM is typically located under the driver’s side dashboard, to the left of the steering column. You will likely need to remove the lower dash knee bolster panel to access it.
Will this fix my ‘Service StabiliTrak’ or ‘Service Airbag’ light?
A faulty BCM can cause these warnings. While this part will fix the root cause, you will need a scan tool to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key’ and ‘Brake Pedal Position Sensor Relearn’ procedures after installation to clear the lights and ensure the systems are fully operational.
Is this a brand new part?
This is a top-quality, tested recycled OEM part. Each unit is thoroughly inspected and then programmed with the latest GM software to ensure reliability and performance that meets or exceeds original factory standards.
