Frequently Asked Questions
How do I provide my VIN for programming?
After you complete your purchase, you will need to send us your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). We cannot ship your order until we receive this information, as the programming is essential for the module to work with your vehicle.
Will this BCM fix my specific electrical problem?
This 15081796 Body Control Module is a direct solution for issues caused by a faulty BCM. While it resolves the most common symptoms like erratic lights, locks, and windows, it’s always best to have a proper diagnosis performed to confirm the BCM is the source of the problem before ordering.
Do I need to perform any procedures after installation?
In some cases, yes. Depending on your specific model, you may need a professional scan tool to perform a ‘Brake Pedal Position Relearn’ or an ‘Airbag System Sync’ if the airbag light comes on. Please refer to a factory service manual or a qualified technician for guidance.
What if my airbag light is on after installing the new BCM?
If the airbag warning light is illuminated after installation, it means the new BCM needs to be synced with the vehicle’s airbag system. A technician will need to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure with a professional-grade diagnostic tool to resolve this.
Is there a core charge for my old part?
No. We do not require you to return your original BCM. There is no core charge associated with this purchase, which simplifies the process and saves you money.
