Restore Your Monte Carlo’s Electrical System
Are you dealing with frustrating and unpredictable electrical issues in your 2000-2004 Chevy Monte Carlo?

This pre-programmed BCM is the definitive, hassle-free solution to restore your car’s full functionality and get you back on the road with confidence.

Expert Insight: The Brains of Your Car’s Body
Think of the BCM as the central nervous system for your car’s body electronics. It doesn’t control the engine, but it manages almost everything else you interact with from the driver’s seat. It’s the reason your key fob unlocks the doors and your interior lights turn on when you open them. When it fails, communication breaks down, leading to the chaotic symptoms you’re likely experiencing. Opting for a pre-programmed 2000-2004 Monte Carlo Body Control Module is the smartest repair path. A used module from a salvage yard would be a paperweight until it’s programmed by a dealer, often costing hundreds in labor. This unit bypasses that entire process, delivering a reliable, ready-to-install part directly to you.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I provide my VIN for programming?
After you complete your purchase, simply send us a message with your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). We cannot ship your module until we receive this information, as the programming is essential for the part to function in your vehicle.
Is this module difficult to install?
The BCM is typically located on the driver’s side, near the steering column. Installation is straightforward for those with basic mechanical skills and tools, usually involving disconnecting the battery, removing a few trim panels, and swapping the electrical connectors. However, we always recommend consulting a service manual or a qualified technician if you are unsure.
What happens if the airbag light is on after installation?
In some cases, the new BCM may need to be synced with the airbag system’s SDM module. If the airbag warning light is on after installation, a professional scan tool is required to perform the “Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM” procedure. This is a simple sync that a repair shop can perform.
Do I need to send my old BCM back?
No. This product comes with no core charge. You can keep, recycle, or dispose of your original module at your convenience.
Will this fix my specific electrical problem?
This module corrects issues directly controlled by the BCM, such as power accessories, security systems, and interior lighting. While it solves the most common electrical gremlins, it’s always best to have a proper diagnosis to confirm the BCM is the source of the fault. This 2000-2004 Monte Carlo Body Control Module is the correct part for those diagnosed issues.
What if my original part number isn’t 10350647?
No problem. This module is a direct replacement for a range of service numbers, including 10323612, 10340320, 10432318, 10432571, 10438145, and 10445875. As long as your vehicle is a 2000-2004 Monte Carlo or Impala, this module is the correct, compatible part.
