Restore Full Functionality to Your GM Truck or SUV
Are you battling strange and frustrating electrical issues in your 2001 GM truck or SUV? Flickering interior lights, unresponsive power windows, a security system that acts on its own, or warning lights that won’t go away are all common signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM).

Expert Insight: The Brains of Your Truck’s Body
Think of the BCM as the central nervous system for your truck’s cabin and body electronics. It doesn’t control the engine, but it manages almost everything else you interact with daily—from the chime that reminds you about your headlights to the power that operates your windows. When it fails, it can feel like the vehicle has a mind of its own. Swapping in a generic, non-programmed module from a junkyard often leads to more problems, as it’s not configured for your truck’s specific options (like 4×2 vs. 4×4, power seats, etc.). Our VIN-specific programming for this 2001 GM Truck Programmed BCM ensures all of your vehicle’s original features are recognized and controlled correctly right out of the box, saving you immense diagnostic time and frustration.
Installation & Post-Install Notes
After you purchase, simply provide us with your VIN so we can program the module before shipping. The BCM is typically located on the left-hand (driver’s) side of the dashboard. While installation is straightforward for those with mechanical experience, some vehicles may require a simple relearn procedure after the new BCM is installed. These are not always necessary but are important to be aware of:
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is on after installation, a professional scan tool is needed to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: On some models, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration may be needed to ensure proper brake light and traction control operation.
This 2001 GM Truck Programmed BCM is the most reliable and efficient way to solve your vehicle’s electrical headaches and get your dependable workhorse back in top form.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where do I provide my VIN?
After completing your purchase, you will receive instructions on how to send us your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN. We cannot ship your order until we receive and validate your VIN.
Is this a plug-and-play part?
For most vehicles, yes. Because we program it to your VIN, it is designed to integrate seamlessly. However, as noted above, some vehicles may require a simple ‘relearn’ procedure for the airbag or brake pedal position sensor, which may require a professional scan tool.
What functions does the BCM control?
The Body Control Module manages a wide array of non-engine related functions, including power windows, power locks, the security system, interior and exterior lighting, warning chimes, and dashboard information displays.
Will this fix my ‘Service 4WD’ light?
While the BCM communicates with many systems, a ‘Service 4WD’ message is often related to the Transfer Case Control Module (TCCM), not the BCM. It’s important to diagnose your specific issue correctly before ordering.
Do I need to return my original BCM?
No. This product has no core charge. You can keep your original module, which can be helpful for reference or as a backup.
Is this compatible with my 2002 model?
This specific part number, 9370249, and its interchanges are designated for the 2001 model year. Please verify the part number in your vehicle or contact us to ensure you are ordering the correct module for a different year.
