Restore Your Truck’s Brainpower: The No-Hassle BCM Solution
Is your 2014 Silverado 1500 acting possessed? Flickering lights, windows that won’t roll down, a security system that randomly immobilizes your engine, or a dashboard lit up with warning lights are all classic signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM is the central command center for your truck’s body electronics, and when it fails, it can cause a cascade of frustrating and seemingly unrelated problems. Dealerships will quote you a fortune for a new module plus expensive programming fees. We offer a smarter, more affordable solution.
This is a fully tested, guaranteed-to-work Body Control Module (interchangeable with part numbers 13594692, 13594768, 13593214, 13580690, 13591519, and 13594769). The best part? We handle the programming for you. Our unique cloning service transfers the exact data from your original BCM to this replacement unit. The result is a true plug-and-play module that requires no additional programming or dealer intervention. Get your truck back to 100% functionality without the hassle.
A Technician’s Notebook: The Haunted Silverado
A customer brought in a 2014 Silverado 1500 with a laundry list of bizarre issues. The radio would turn on and off, the driver’s side power window worked intermittently, and sometimes the truck just wouldn’t start, with the security light flashing. He’d already replaced the battery and checked the grounds. My initial scan showed a slew of U-codes (communication errors) pointing to the BCM. After confirming power and ground to the module were solid, the diagnosis was clear: internal BCM failure. Instead of a costly new unit and hours of programming, we used our cloning service. We shipped him the programmed replacement, he swapped it in 30 minutes, and every single electrical gremlin was gone. It’s a textbook example of how a failing 2014 Silverado 1500 BCM can mimic a dozen other problems.
Is Your Vehicle Showing These Symptoms?
- ✔ Power windows, door locks, or interior lights not working or acting erratically.
- ✔ The security or anti-theft light is on, preventing the engine from starting.
- ✔ Horn, wipers, or turn signals function intermittently or not at all.
- ✔ Dashboard warning lights appear for no reason.
- ✔ Communication error codes (U-codes) are stored, such as U0140, U0155, or U0100.
- ✔ Inconsistent or non-functional remote keyless entry.
A Straightforward Guide to Installation
- ✔ Safety First: Always disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery before starting any electrical work.
- ✔ Locate the BCM: On a 2014 Silverado 1500, the BCM is typically located under the driver’s side of the dashboard, near the steering column. You may need to remove a lower dash panel for access.
- ✔ Disconnect and Remove: Carefully unplug the electrical connectors from the old BCM. They have locking tabs that need to be depressed. Once disconnected, unbolt or unclip the module from its mounting bracket.
- ✔ Install the New Module: Mount your new, pre-programmed BCM in the same location and securely reconnect all electrical connectors. Ensure they click into place.
- ✔ Reconnect and Test: Reconnect the negative battery terminal. Turn the key to the ‘On’ position and test all body functions—windows, locks, lights, wipers, etc.—to confirm the repair.
Post-Installation Procedures & Notes
Our cloning service makes this a nearly plug-and-play process. However, in some GM vehicles, a couple of simple relearn procedures may be needed after installation. This is normal and ensures all related systems communicate correctly with the new BCM.
- Airbag System Sync: If, and only if, the airbag warning light is illuminated after installation, a professional scan tool is required to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure. This syncs the airbag system with the new BCM.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: On certain models, a brake pedal position sensor relearn might be necessary to ensure perfect brake light and traction control operation.
- No Core Charge: You are not required to return your old module to us. Keep it!
Disclaimer: Vehicle systems vary. We always recommend consulting a factory service manual or a certified technician if you are unsure about any step.

Frequently Asked Questions About the 2014 Silverado 1500 BCM
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the programming service work?
It’s simple. After you place your order, we’ll contact you with instructions to ship your original BCM to us. Once we receive it, our technicians will extract the vehicle-specific data and flash it onto the replacement module. We then ship the ready-to-install BCM back to you.
Do I need any special tools to install this?
No. The installation itself only requires basic hand tools to access the module and disconnect the battery. Because we pre-program the module, you do not need any expensive dealership scan tools.
Is there a core charge or do I need to send my old part back?
There is absolutely no core charge. You only need to send us your original BCM for the initial data cloning service. You can keep it afterward.
What if my original BCM is completely dead or not communicating?
In many cases, even if the BCM is not functioning in the vehicle, we can still extract the necessary data from the chip. Please contact us with your specific situation if you have concerns about your module’s condition.
Will this fix my specific problem?
This module will correct any issues directly caused by a faulty BCM. If you’ve properly diagnosed the BCM as the source of your electrical problems, this part is the solution. It will not fix issues caused by other components, such as bad wiring or faulty sensors.
