Restore Full Electronic Functionality to Your Vehicle
Are you battling frustrating and unpredictable electrical problems in your Buick Verano, Chevy Cruze, or other compatible GM vehicle? Issues like malfunctioning power windows, erratic dashboard lights, a security system that won’t cooperate, or even a no-start condition can often be traced back to a single component: a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM acts as the central nervous system for your car’s body electronics, and when it fails, it can cause a cascade of confusing and disruptive symptoms. This isn’t just an inconvenience; it can compromise your vehicle’s safety and reliability.
We offer a straightforward and reliable solution. This is a replacement Body Control Module, part number 13589325, that comes ready for installation through our professional programming service. By cloning the data from your original, faulty BCM, we ensure the replacement unit is a perfect digital match for your vehicle’s specific configuration. This process eliminates the need for expensive and time-consuming trips to the dealership for programming, providing you with a true plug-and-play repair.

Common Symptoms of a Failing BCM
- ✔ Intermittent or non-functional power windows, door locks, or mirrors.
- ✔ Erratic behavior from interior or exterior lights (flickering, staying on, or not turning on).
- ✔ Malfunctioning alarm or keyless entry system.
- ✔ Warning lights appearing on the dashboard for various systems (ABS, Airbag, Traction Control).
- ✔ The vehicle’s horn sounding randomly.
- ✔ Wipers operating on their own or not working at all.
- ✔ A no-start condition where the engine cranks but won’t fire due to security system conflicts.
Why Choose Our Programmed 2013-2017 Verano BCM?
This service is the most efficient way to resolve your BCM issues. By using the data from your original module, we bypass the complex anti-theft and system synchronization procedures that dealerships must perform on a new, blank module. This saves you from towing fees, high labor costs, and the hassle of scheduling a dealer appointment. It’s a direct, effective repair that restores your vehicle to its factory-correct operational state.
Post-Installation Procedures
While our goal is a 100% plug-and-play experience, some vehicle systems may require a quick re-sync procedure after the new BCM is installed. These are typically simple and can often be done with a high-level diagnostic tool.
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is illuminated after installation, a ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure is needed to sync the airbag system. This is only required if the light is on.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: On some models, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration might be necessary to ensure correct brake light and traction control operation.
Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician for guidance specific to your vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a BCM and what does it do?
The Body Control Module (BCM) is a computer in your vehicle that manages and controls many of its electronic accessories and non-engine-related functions. This includes power windows, door locks, interior and exterior lighting, security systems, wipers, and more.
How does this programming service work?
After you purchase, you will ship your original BCM to us. We then extract the vehicle-specific data and transfer it to the replacement module. This ‘cloning’ process makes the replacement part a perfect match for your car, so it works immediately upon installation without any dealer programming.
Is this part difficult to install?
The physical installation is typically straightforward. The BCM is usually located under the dashboard on the driver’s or passenger’s side. It involves disconnecting the battery, removing a few trim panels, and unplugging the electrical connectors. Most DIY mechanics with basic tools can complete the job.
Will I need to do any extra programming after installation?
No, our cloning service handles all the necessary programming. In some rare cases, a simple ‘relearn’ or ‘sync’ procedure may be needed for systems like the airbags or brake pedal sensor if a warning light appears, but this does not require a full dealer re-program.
Why is cloning my BCM better than buying a used one from a junkyard?
A used BCM from another vehicle is locked to that car’s VIN and security system. It will not work in your car without being completely reprogrammed by a dealer, which is often not possible. Our service provides a part that is already perfectly matched to your exact vehicle.
