Is Your Vehicle Plagued by Bizarre Electrical Issues?
Dealing with flickering dashboard lights, power windows with a mind of their own, or a security system that randomly activates can be incredibly frustrating. These aren’t just minor annoyances; they are classic signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). Your BCM is the central command center for your car’s body electronics, and when it starts to fail, it can make your vehicle feel unreliable and unsafe. Stop guessing at the problem and get the definitive solution that puts you back in control.
Common Symptoms & Your Solution
If you’re experiencing any of the following, a faulty BCM is the likely culprit:
- Interior or exterior lights not working correctly or staying on
- Power windows, locks, or mirrors behaving erratically
- Warning lights appearing on the dash for no reason
- Problems with the anti-theft or keyless entry system
- Intermittent no-start conditions where the engine cranks but won’t fire

Expert Insight: From a 20-Year Vet
I once had a customer with a Cadillac SRX whose interior lights would flicker constantly, and the liftgate would open on its own. The dealer quoted them over $1,200 for a new BCM and the required programming. They were stressed and ready to sell the car. Instead, we performed this exact cloning service. They sent us their module, we shipped back the programmed replacement in a few days, and their local mechanic installed it in under an hour. The total cost was a fraction of the dealer’s quote, and all the bizarre electrical gremlins were gone for good. This isn’t just about replacing a part; it’s about providing a smart, affordable solution that restores your peace of mind.
Simple & Secure Process
Getting your vehicle back to 100% is easy. After you place your order, we will contact you with clear, step-by-step instructions for shipping your original BCM to our facility. Once we receive it, our expert technicians will perform the data transfer to your new Programmed 13579004 BCM Replacement and ship it right back to you, typically within 1-2 business days. We provide tracking information so you know exactly when to expect your ready-to-install part.
Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly does the BCM do?
The Body Control Module (BCM) acts as the brain for your vehicle’s electronic accessories. It controls functions that aren’t related to the engine, such as power windows, locks, interior and exterior lighting, the security system, and the wipers. When it fails, it can cause a wide range of seemingly unrelated electrical problems.
Is this service difficult to use?
Not at all. We’ve designed the process to be as simple as possible. After your purchase, we send you instructions to mail us your original BCM. We handle all the technical programming work. You’ll receive a plug-and-play module back, which you or your mechanic can easily install.
How do I know if this part will fit my vehicle?
This BCM is compatible with a wide range of GM vehicles, including the Chevy Volt, Cruze, Equinox, Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac SRX, and GMC Terrain. Please check the detailed fitment list in the description and ensure one of the listed part numbers (like 13579004, 13583450, etc.) matches what’s on your original module.
What if my airbag light comes on after installation?
In some cases, the new BCM may need to be synced with the airbag system. This is a straightforward procedure called ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ that can be performed by a qualified technician with a professional scan tool. It is only necessary if the airbag warning light is on after the BCM is installed.
Will I need to do anything else after installing the module?
In most cases, no. It’s designed to be plug-and-play. However, on some models, a ‘Brake Pedal Position Relearn’ may be necessary to ensure proper brake light and traction control function. This is a simple procedure that can be done with a capable diagnostic tool. Our Programmed 13579004 BCM Replacement eliminates the most complex programming steps for you.
