Important Post-Installation Information
While this BCM is programmed for your vehicle, some models may require one or more simple relearn procedures after installation to sync with other vehicle systems. This is a normal part of the repair process.
- Airbag System Sync: If your airbag warning light is on after installation, a “Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM” procedure is necessary. This requires a professional-grade scan tool to sync the new BCM with the airbag module.
- 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.
Please note: Specific procedures can vary. We always recommend consulting a factory service manual or a qualified technician for guidance. Getting a professional installation for your 2001 Silverado 1500 Body Control Module ensures all systems are correctly calibrated.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Body Control Module (BCM) do?
The BCM acts as the central computer for your vehicle’s body electronics. It controls non-engine related functions like power windows, locks, lights, the security system, wipers, and instrument panel gauges.
Is this BCM difficult to install?
Physically, the BCM is typically located under the driver’s side dashboard and is straightforward to swap with basic tools. However, as noted above, some vehicles may require post-installation relearn procedures with a diagnostic tool to sync the new module with other systems like the airbags.
How do I provide you with my VIN?
After you complete your purchase, you will need to send us your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN. We cannot program and ship your BCM without it. Instructions will be provided in your order confirmation.
Do I have to send my old part back?
No. This product comes with no core charge. You can keep or dispose of your original module, making the process faster and simpler for you.
