Restore Full Functionality to Your GM Truck or SUV

Are you battling frustrating electrical issues in your 2000-2001 GM vehicle? Flickering lights, unresponsive power windows, or a security system that won’t cooperate are common signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM acts as the central command center for your vehicle’s body electronics, and when it malfunctions, it can cause a cascade of confusing and intermittent problems. This replacement Body Control Module, part number 9385236, is the definitive solution to get your truck or SUV back in perfect working order.
n
Unlike a standard replacement part from a dealership or salvage yard, this BCM arrives at your door fully programmed to your specific vehicle. We flash it with the latest GM software updates using the VIN you provide at checkout. This critical step ensures a seamless, plug-and-play installation, eliminating the need for expensive dealership programming or specialized scan tools for the initial setup. It’s designed to restore the original performance and reliability you expect from your vehicle.

From the Diagnostic Bay
n
We had a 2000 Silverado in the shop with a classic case of “electrical gremlins.” The owner had already replaced the driver’s side window switch twice and was convinced the motor was next. The dome light would randomly stay on, and the radio would sometimes lose power. A quick scan showed no communication with the BCM. Instead of throwing more parts at it, we identified the root cause: the BCM itself was failing internally. After installing a VIN-programmed module like this one, all the strange issues vanished instantly. It saved the customer hundreds in unnecessary parts and labor by correctly diagnosing the problem the first time.

Diagnosing Your 2000 GM Truck BCM Failure
n
A faulty BCM can manifest in numerous ways, often making diagnosis difficult. If your vehicle is experiencing several of the following symptoms, a failing Body Control Module is the most likely culprit.

- n
- ✔ Erratic or non-functional interior and exterior lights (headlights, dome lights, dash lights).
- ✔ Power windows, door locks, or mirrors working intermittently or not at all.
- ✔ The security or anti-theft light (Passlock) stays on, preventing the engine from starting.
- ✔ Horn honking unexpectedly or not working when pressed.
- ✔ Wipers behaving erratically (e.g., won’t turn off).
- ✔ False warnings appearing on the instrument cluster.
- ✔ Rapid battery drain while the vehicle is off.

Simple Installation and Post-Install Notes
n
Thanks to our VIN programming service, installing your new 2000 GM Truck BCM is a straightforward process. Simply locate your old module (typically under the driver’s side dash), disconnect the battery, swap the modules, and reconnect the battery. However, on these specific GM platforms, a couple of additional steps may be required after installation:
n
- n
- Airbag System Sync: If your airbag warning light illuminates after installation, a simple “Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM” procedure is needed. This requires a professional-grade scan tool to sync the new BCM with the airbag system. This is only necessary if the light appears.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: In some models, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration might be necessary to ensure proper brake light and traction control operation.

We make the process even easier with our No Core Charge policy. You don’t have to worry about the cost or hassle of sending your old, faulty module back to us. Keep it, recycle it, or dispose of it as you see fit.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Body Control Module (BCM) do?
The BCM is a computer that controls and monitors many of your vehicle’s non-engine related functions, such as power windows, locks, lights, security system, wipers, and interior accessories. It’s the brain for your vehicle’s body electronics.
Why do you need my Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)?
Your VIN allows us to program the BCM with the exact software and settings for your vehicle’s specific options and features. This makes the installation plug-and-play and ensures all functions work correctly without a trip to the dealer.
Is this BCM difficult to install?
The physical installation is typically simple, involving unplugging the old module and plugging in the new one. It’s usually located under the driver’s side of the dashboard. While the part is plug-and-play, some vehicles may require the post-installation procedures mentioned above.
Will this part fix my ‘Security’ light and no-start issue?
Yes, a failing BCM is a very common cause of Passlock security system issues in these GM trucks and SUVs. A new, correctly programmed BCM will resolve these security-related starting problems.
What if the airbag light comes on after I install it?
This is a known possibility. It means the new BCM needs to be electronically ‘introduced’ to the airbag module (SDM). A repair shop with a professional scan tool can perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure to sync the modules and turn off the light.
Is there a core charge for this part?
No, there is absolutely no core charge. You can keep your original module without any extra fees or hassle.
