2013 – 2014 GM BCM (Body Control Module) 22915542 – Pre-Programmed to Your VIN with One-Year Warranty from Highway71AutoParts.com
Frustrated by erratic lights and unresponsive locks in your 2013-2014 Chevy Impala or GMC Savana? These symptoms often point to a failing body control module, leaving drivers stranded with no clear fix. Over my 20+ years in auto repair, I’ve tackled hundreds of BCM issues in GM vehicles, pinpointing causes like moisture damage or voltage spikes that trigger codes like B1370 or U0140. This pre-programmed BCM, part number 22915542 (also compatible with 22820314), arrives flashed with the latest GM updates using your VIN for a seamless match. It resolves those nagging electrical gremlins, restoring reliable operation without dealership hassles. Transitioning to why this stands out: unlike generic replacements, our unit includes a one-year warranty and no core charge, saving you time and money on diagnostics.
Common Issues & How This Fixes Them
Drivers report flickering headlights or dead power windows in models like the 2013 Traverse—what causes body control module failure in GM vans? Often, it’s corrosion from leaky seals, especially in high-humidity areas, leading to short circuits.
In my shop, I’ve seen over 300 cases where BCMs in Express vans failed due to battery drain from faulty grounds, causing no-start conditions and airbag lights.
This replacement BCM fixes these by providing updated firmware that enhances resistance to electrical noise, preventing recurring DTCs.
- Intermittent door locks or alarms: Replaces corrupted software, ensuring smooth communication with security systems.
- Dashboard warning lights staying on: Clears persistent errors like airbag indicators through proper programming.
- Power accessory failures: Restores control over windows, mirrors, and lights by recalibrating network signals.
Wondering how to troubleshoot BCM problems in a 2014 Cadillac CTS? Start with a scan tool to check for communication faults—I’ve saved clients hundreds by diagnosing this before full failure.

Easy Installation Guide
Installing this BCM takes about 30-45 minutes with basic tools. Locate it under the left dash or center console, depending on your model—Impala owners, check LH dash.
Disconnect the battery first to avoid shorts. Remove the old unit by unplugging connectors and unbolting it.
After installation, perform key relearn if no-start occurs: Insert key, turn to ON for 10 minutes, off for 30 seconds—repeat three times per GM standards.
Reset the airbag warning light by running the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure with a diagnostic tool like Tech2 or MDI.
Some vehicles, like the Enclave, may need brake pedal recalibration for optimal safety—consult your manual or a pro if unsure, as steps vary.
Pro Tip: Test all electrical functions post-install to catch any loose connections early, preventing future headaches in high-mileage vans.
For theft deterrent, relearn only if the engine won’t crank: Cycle the key 3-5 times to sync the immobilizer.
