Programmed 1998-2000 GM Truck BCM | 16257125 | VIN Matched

Are you battling strange and frustrating electrical issues in your GM truck or SUV? Flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows, a security system that acts on its own, or an intermittent no-start condition can all point to a failing Body Control Module (BCM). Don’t let these electrical gremlins keep your reliable truck off the road. This BCM is the definitive solution, arriving at your door fully programmed to your vehicle’s specific VIN for a straightforward installation process.

Common Symptoms & Your Solution

A faulty BCM can cause a wide range of problems that seem unrelated. If you’re experiencing any of the following, a replacement module is likely the fix you need:

• Interior or exterior lights not working correctly (staying on, not turning on, or flickering)
• Power windows, door locks, or mirrors operating erratically or not at all
• The security or anti-theft system preventing the engine from starting
• Erratic gauge cluster behavior
• Communication errors with other vehicle modules (often showing as U-series DTCs)

This Programmed 1998-2000 GM Truck BCM is the central command unit for these body electronics, and our VIN-matching service ensures it integrates seamlessly with your truck’s existing systems, restoring full functionality and getting you back on the road with confidence.

Expert Insight: The Junkyard Gamble vs. A Programmed Solution

As a technician, I’ve seen countless truck owners try to save a few dollars with a used BCM from a salvage yard. The problem is, that BCM is programmed for a different truck with different options—power seats, security systems, lighting packages, and more. This mismatch almost always leads to new, even more confusing problems. Worse, it can trigger the anti-theft system, immobilizing the vehicle completely. Our Programmed 1998-2000 GM Truck BCM eliminates that gamble. By programming it to your VIN, we ensure it’s a perfect electronic match for your truck right out of the box.

Installation & Post-Install Notes

After you purchase, simply provide us with your vehicle’s VIN. We will program the BCM before shipping it. While the programming makes this a largely plug-and-play repair, some vehicles may require a simple relearn procedure after installation. Please be aware of the following possibilities:

• Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is on after installation, a ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure may be needed. This requires a professional scan tool to sync the BCM with the airbag module.
• Brake Pedal Position Relearn: On some models, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration might be necessary to ensure proper brake light and traction control function.

We provide a reliable Programmed 1998-2000 GM Truck BCM so you can get your workhorse back in dependable condition. Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician if you are unsure about any step of the installation process.
