Tired of Chasing Electrical Gremlins in Your GM Truck or Van?
Is your Silverado, Sierra, Savana, or Express suffering from strange and unpredictable electrical issues? Flickering lights, power windows with a mind of their own, a security system that won’t cooperate, or even a no-start condition can all point to a failing Body Control Module (BCM). These problems are more than just an annoyance; they compromise your vehicle’s reliability and your peace of mind. Stop throwing parts at the problem and get the definitive solution that gets your workhorse back on the road, fast.
Common Symptoms of a Failing BCM & Your Direct Solution
If you’re experiencing any of the following, a faulty BCM is the likely culprit:
- Erratic or non-functional power windows, door locks, and mirrors
- Interior or exterior lights that stay on, flicker, or don’t work at all
- The security light is illuminated on the dash, preventing the engine from starting
- Wipers or radio behaving unpredictably
- Communication error codes (U-codes) when scanned with a diagnostic tool

Expert Insight: The BCM as Your Truck’s Command Center
Think of the BCM as the central nervous system for your vehicle’s cabin and body electronics. It’s not a simple on/off switch; it’s a computer that manages everything from your keyless entry to the interior dome light delay. That’s why a generic, non-programmed module won’t work. Each truck and van has a unique combination of options (power seats, specific lighting, security features), and the BCM needs to know exactly what it’s controlling. Our VIN-specific programming process ensures the new module speaks the correct language for your exact vehicle, restoring function as the factory intended.
Don’t let a faulty module keep your reliable GM vehicle sidelined. This Programmed 15136224 BCM is the most efficient and dependable way to solve frustrating electrical issues and restore the performance you count on every day.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do I need to do after I place my order?
After you complete your purchase, you must send us your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN. We cannot program and ship your module without it. This ensures the BCM is a perfect match for your vehicle’s specific options and configuration.
Is this module truly plug and play?
For most vehicles, yes. The core programming is done, allowing the vehicle to start and run. However, as with any BCM replacement, some vehicles may require a simple relearn procedure for certain systems, such as the Brake Pedal Position sensor or syncing the airbag module (SDM). These are standard post-installation steps that can often be performed with a capable diagnostic tool.
Where is the BCM located on my vehicle?
On most compatible Sierra and Silverado pickups, the BCM is located under the steering column. On Savana and Express vans, it is typically found in the center of the dash. Always consult a service manual for your specific model to confirm the location and proper removal procedure.
Will this fix my specific problem?
This Programmed 15136224 BCM is the direct solution for issues caused by a failed Body Control Module. While proper diagnosis is always recommended, the symptoms listed above—like erratic power accessories, security light issues, and communication codes—are classic indicators of a BCM failure.
My original part number is different. Will this still work?
