Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Body Control Module do on my 2011 Sierra?
The BCM acts as the central computer for your truck’s body electronics. It controls non-engine related functions like power windows, locks, lights, wipers, the security system, and the HVAC system.
Is this part ready to install when I receive it?

What if my airbag light stays on after installing the new BCM?
If the airbag light is on, a procedure called ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ may be required. This syncs the new BCM with the airbag system and can be done with a professional-grade diagnostic tool.
