Are you battling a storm of strange electrical problems in your vehicle? Flickering lights, unresponsive power windows, a security system that has a mind of its own, or an engine that refuses to start can all point to a failing Body Control Module (BCM). Don’t let these frustrating issues keep you off the road. This mail-in programming service for a replacement BCM is the simple, reliable, and cost-effective solution to restore your car’s proper function and your peace of mind.
Common Symptoms & Your Solution
A faulty BCM can cause a wide range of confusing symptoms that seem unrelated. If you’re experiencing any of the following, a failing BCM is the likely culprit:
- Interior or exterior lights not working correctly (staying on or not turning on)
- Power windows, door locks, or mirrors operating erratically or not at all
- The security system engaging randomly or preventing the car from starting
- Dashboard warning lights appearing without a clear cause
- Communication error codes (U-codes) stored in the vehicle’s diagnostic system
Instead of paying for expensive diagnostics and dealership programming, our service provides a fully Programmed 13580696 BCM that is a direct, plug-and-play fix. We transfer the critical data from your original module to the replacement unit, ensuring a seamless installation without any additional programming required.

Expert Insight: The Power of Cloning
Why is cloning superior to buying a new BCM from the dealer? A new, off-the-shelf BCM is a blank slate. The dealership must perform a complex and costly programming procedure to make it communicate with your car’s other modules, VIN, and security system. Our cloning service bypasses this entirely. We perform a precise, bit-for-bit transfer of your vehicle’s unique software, options, and security data. This makes the replacement Programmed 13580696 BCM an identical twin to your original, ensuring every function works exactly as it did from the factory, saving you hundreds of dollars and significant downtime.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does this mail-in cloning service work?
It’s simple. After you place your order, we will contact you with instructions to ship your original BCM to our facility. Once we receive it, our technicians will clone the data onto the replacement unit and ship it back to you, typically within 1-2 business days. We provide tracking information for the return shipment.
Is this module truly plug-and-play?
Yes. Because we are transferring all the data from your original module, the replacement BCM will be pre-configured for your specific vehicle’s VIN, options, and security information. In most cases, you simply install it and you’re ready to go. Some vehicles may require minor post-install procedures as noted.
Will I need to have my keys reprogrammed?
No. The cloning process transfers all security and key data. Your existing keys will be recognized by the replacement BCM immediately upon installation.
What if my airbag light comes on after installation?
In some cases, the BCM and the airbag module (SDM) need to be re-synchronized. This is done with a professional scan tool using the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure. It’s a quick process for any qualified technician if the light appears.
How long does the entire process take?
We perform the cloning and ship the replacement module back to you within 1-2 business days of receiving your original BCM. Total turnaround time will depend on shipping times to and from our facility.

You will receive a fully tested, compatible BCM that matches the fitment for part numbers 13580696, 123589093, 13588446, 13584692, and 13583542. The unit will be programmed specifically for your vehicle.
