Tired of Chasing Electrical Gremlins in Your GM Truck?
Are strange, unpredictable electrical problems plaguing your trusty S10, Blazer, Silverado, or Sierra? Intermittent power windows, flickering dash lights, a security system that randomly immobilizes your engine, or power locks with a mind of their own are all classic signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). Stop wasting time and money checking fuses and replacing switches. This pre-programmed BCM is the definitive, reliable solution to restore your vehicle’s functionality and your peace of mind.
Common Symptoms of a Failing BCM & Your Direct-Fit Solution
The BCM is the central nervous system for your vehicle’s body electronics. When it fails, it can cause a cascade of frustrating issues. If you’re experiencing any of the following, a faulty BCM is the likely culprit:
- Erratic power window and power lock operation
- Interior dome lights staying on or not working at all
- The security or anti-theft light flashing, causing a no-start condition
- Wipers or radio turning on and off randomly
- Inconsistent instrument panel backlighting
This isn’t just a replacement part; it’s a complete, ready-to-install solution. We take a genuine OEM module and flash it with the latest GM software updates, specifically programmed to your vehicle’s unique VIN. This process ensures perfect communication between modules and restores all functions as the factory intended. Getting a programmed 19153625 BCM from us is the most efficient way to get your truck back to 100%.

An Expert’s Note on BCM Replacement
We had a customer with a ’99 Silverado who was about to sell the truck out of pure frustration. The security light would flash intermittently, leaving him stranded at the worst times. He had already replaced the battery, ignition switch, and checked every ground he could find. The problem was the BCM. Once he installed our pre-flashed unit, all the ghost-like electrical issues vanished instantly. This programmed 19153625 BCM saved him from selling a perfectly good truck and restored his confidence in his vehicle.
Post-Installation Information
While this module is designed for a straightforward installation, some vehicles may require simple relearn procedures after the new BCM is connected. Please be aware of the following possibilities:
- Airbag System Sync: If your airbag warning light is on after installation, a professional scan tool will be needed to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure. This syncs the airbag system with the new BCM.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: On some models, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration might be necessary for proper brake light and traction control operation.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the programming process work?
It’s simple! After you complete your purchase, you will need to provide us with your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN. Our technicians use this VIN to flash the BCM with the exact software and calibration file for your truck’s specific options and features before we ship it.
Is this a simple plug-and-play installation?
For most vehicles, yes. The module is physically a direct replacement. Once you plug it in, most functions will work immediately. However, as noted above, some vehicles may require an airbag sync or brake pedal relearn, which may require a professional scan tool.
What happens if my airbag light comes on after I install it?
An illuminated airbag light indicates that the BCM and the airbag’s SDM (Sensing and Diagnostic Module) need to be synchronized. This is a common security procedure that requires a high-end diagnostic tool to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ function.
Do I need to send my old BCM back?
No. We do not require you to return your original module. This part has no core charge, which saves you time and return shipping costs.
How can I be sure this fits my vehicle?
Please check the fitment list on this page and confirm that your original BCM has the ID number 16257125 printed on it. This programmed 19153625 BCM is the correct service replacement for that ID.
What does the Body Control Module do?
The BCM acts as a central computer for your vehicle’s non-engine related electronics. It controls features like the power windows, power locks, interior and exterior lighting, security system, wipers, and various other comfort and convenience accessories.
