2013 Regal BCM Programmed | Cloned BCM 13584695 – Ship Your Original

As a seasoned automotive expert with over two decades in the repair bay, I’ve seen countless vehicles roll in with mysterious electrical issues. From flickering dash lights to power windows refusing to cooperate, the Body Control Module (BCM) is often the silent culprit behind a myriad of frustrating problems. When your vehicle’s central nervous system, the BCM, starts to falter, it can feel like your car has a mind of its own. That’s where a precisely programmed replacement becomes essential.

We understand the headache a failing BCM can cause. That’s why we offer a seamless solution: a pre-programmed and cloned Body Control Module, specifically for your vehicle. This service ensures a straightforward replacement process, minimizing downtime and getting you back on the road with confidence. Our expertise ensures that this 2013 Regal BCM Programmed unit arrives ready to integrate with your vehicle’s existing systems.

Signs of a Failing Body Control Module

Identifying a failing BCM can be tricky, as its symptoms often mimic other electrical issues. However, in my shop, I’ve diagnosed hundreds of BCM failures, and there are common patterns to look for. If your vehicle is exhibiting any of these behaviors, your BCM might be the source:

• ✔ Intermittent or complete failure of interior or exterior lighting (headlights, taillights, dome lights).
• ✔ Power windows, door locks, or power mirrors malfunctioning sporadically or not at all.
• ✔ Issues with the security system, including false alarms or difficulty arming/disarming.
• ✔ Problems with the vehicle’s infotainment system or radio.
• ✔ Dash warning lights illuminating without apparent cause, such as the airbag light or ABS light.
• ✔ Erratic wiper operation or non-functional wipers.
• ✔ Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) like U0140 (Lost Communication with Body Control Module), B1325 (Device Power Circuit), or B2580 (Headlamp Control Circuit).

These symptoms can be incredibly frustrating, but with the right part, a reliable fix is within reach.

A Technician’s Insight: Solving BCM Mysteries

I recall a 2014 Chevrolet Cruze that came into the shop last month. The owner was at their wit’s end; the car’s power windows would randomly stop working, the interior lights flickered, and the horn would sometimes blare on its own. They had been to two other shops, both suggesting expensive wiring harness replacements. After a thorough diagnostic scan, we found a persistent U0140 code, indicating a communication loss with the BCM. This pointed directly to the Body Control Module as the root cause. We explained our cloning service, and once the new 2013 Regal BCM Programmed equivalent was installed and the necessary post-installation steps completed, all the erratic electrical issues vanished. It was a classic example of how a failing BCM can manifest in seemingly unrelated electrical glitches.

Seamless Installation: Getting Your Vehicle Back on Track

Replacing a Body Control Module might sound daunting, but our cloning service simplifies the process significantly. Here’s a general overview of what to expect:

1. Safety First: Disconnect the negative battery terminal to prevent electrical shorts and ensure safety during the removal process.
2. Locate and Remove: Carefully locate your vehicle’s existing BCM. For many of the compatible models, it’s often found on the LH side of the dash, LH kick panel, or even below the center console. Gently disconnect all wiring harnesses and mounting hardware.
3. Ship Your Original: After your purchase, we will contact you to arrange the shipping of your original BCM to us. Please ensure your contact information is accurate for this crucial step.
4. Expert Programming: Once we receive your original BCM, our experienced technicians will meticulously clone its data onto your replacement unit. This process ensures all your vehicle’s specific configurations, immobilizer data, and key information are transferred accurately.
5. Receive and Install: We will ship the programmed replacement BCM back to you with tracking information. Once it arrives, simply connect the new BCM, ensuring all harnesses are securely fastened and the module is properly mounted.
6. Reconnect Battery: Reconnect the negative battery terminal.
7. Perform Post-Installation Procedures: This is a critical step. After replacing your BCM, important steps must be taken to ensure proper functionality:

• Resetting the Airbag Warning Light: Perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure using a qualified diagnostic tool to reset the airbag warning light.
• Brake Pedal Recalibration: Some vehicles may require a brake pedal recalibration after BCM replacement. This ensures optimal braking performance and safety.

Note: The specific steps may vary depending on your vehicle model and year. It is always advisable to consult your vehicle’s service manual or seek assistance from a professional technician if you are unsure about any procedure.
