Restore Full Electrical Function to Your GM Vehicle
Are you battling strange and frustrating electrical problems in your vehicle? Flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows, erratic gauges, or a security system that won’t cooperate are all classic signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM is the central command center for your car’s body electronics, and when it falters, it can cause a cascade of issues that are difficult to diagnose. This replacement module is the definitive solution to restore your vehicle’s electronic stability and performance.
Common Symptoms of a Failing BCM
- ✔ Intermittent or non-working interior/exterior lights.
- ✔ Power windows, locks, or mirrors behaving erratically.
- ✔ Horn honking unexpectedly or not working at all.
- ✔ Inaccurate or dead gauges on the instrument cluster.
- ✔ Vehicle security system issues, including false alarms or no-start conditions.
- ✔ Warning lights (like Airbag or ABS) illuminating on the dash.
- ✔ Problems with the radio or climate control systems.

Installation & Post-Install Notes
While this module is designed for a straightforward installation, some vehicles may require minor post-installation procedures. These are typically simple recalibrations that can be necessary after the vehicle’s electronic ‘brain’ has been replaced.
- Airbag System Sync: If your airbag warning light is on 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 relearn may be required to ensure correct brake light and traction control operation.
Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician for vehicle-specific procedures.
