Restore Full Electrical Function to Your GM Vehicle
Are you battling frustrating and unpredictable electrical issues in your Chevrolet Equinox, GMC Terrain, or other compatible GM vehicle? Flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows, a security system that has a mind of its own, or even a no-start condition can all point to a single culprit: a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM acts as the central nervous system for your vehicle’s body electronics, and when it starts to fail, it can create a cascade of baffling problems. Replacing it used to mean an expensive part followed by a mandatory and costly programming session at the dealership. Not anymore.
This listing is for a replacement BCM that arrives at your door fully programmed and ready for installation. We accomplish this through a simple and reliable data transfer service. You send us your original BCM, and our expert technicians will extract all the critical vehicle-specific data—including the VIN, mileage, security information, and factory options—and flash it onto this replacement unit. The result is a true plug-and-play module that restores your vehicle’s factory functions without any need for additional programming.
Is Your Vehicle Showing Signs of BCM Failure?
A faulty BCM can manifest in numerous ways. If you’re experiencing any of the following symptoms, a failing Body Control Module is the likely cause:
- ✔ Intermittent or non-working interior and exterior lights (headlights, dome lights, turn signals).
- ✔ Power windows, door locks, or mirrors operating erratically or not at all.
- ✔ The anti-theft or security system acting up, causing random alarm triggers or preventing the car from starting.
- ✔ “Service Theft Deterrent System” or other warnings appearing on the instrument cluster.
- ✔ Unexplained and persistent battery drain that kills your battery overnight.
- ✔ Instrument panel gauges behaving erratically, freezing, or not working.
- ✔ Remote keyless entry (RKE) system failing to lock or unlock the doors.

- ✔ Send Us Your Module: Carefully remove your original BCM from the vehicle (typically located on the left-hand side of the dash or in the driver’s kick panel) and ship it to our facility.
- ✔ Receive Your Plug-and-Play Part: Once we receive your module, our technicians will transfer the data to the replacement unit and ship it back to you, usually within one business day. You’ll receive a part that is ready for immediate installation.
Important Post-Installation Notes
While our goal is a 100% plug-and-play experience, some GM vehicles may require a simple relearn procedure after installation. These are not programming steps and can often be performed by a local mechanic with a capable scan tool.
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is illuminated after installation, a procedure called “Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM” is needed to sync the new BCM with the airbag system. This is only required if the light appears.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: On some models, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration may be necessary to ensure correct brake light operation and traction control function.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if my original BCM is completely dead or damaged?
In many cases, even if the BCM is not functioning in the vehicle, we can still extract the necessary data. If your module has significant water or fire damage, please contact us before ordering to discuss options.
How long does the programming service take?
We pride ourselves on a fast turnaround. Once we receive your original module, we typically complete the data transfer and ship your replacement BCM back out within 24-48 business hours.
Is this installation really plug-and-play?
Yes, for over 95% of installations. Because we transfer all your vehicle’s original data, the replacement module is recognized by the car as the original. In rare cases, a minor relearn procedure as described above may be needed. No dealer-level programming is required.
Where is the BCM located on my 2010 Equinox?
On the 2010 Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain, the Body Control Module is typically located behind the lower left-hand side of the dashboard, near the steering column.
Do I need to send my keys with the BCM?
No, you do not need to send us your keys. All the necessary security and key information is stored within the BCM itself, and we will transfer it directly to the replacement unit.
