Restore Full Electrical Function to Your GM SUV
Are you battling frustrating electrical gremlins in your 2001 GM truck or SUV? Issues like flickering lights, unresponsive power windows and locks, or a persistent security warning light are often caused by a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM is the central command center for your vehicle’s body electronics, and when it fails, it can cause a wide range of unpredictable problems. This replacement BCM is the definitive solution to restore your vehicle’s factory functions and get you back on the road with confidence.
From the Diagnostic Bay
We had a 2001 Yukon XL in the shop that was driving its owner crazy. The dome lights would stay on, the driver’s power window worked only when it wanted to, and the radio would randomly shut off. The owner had already replaced the battery and checked all the fuses. After connecting our scanner, we saw multiple communication loss codes pointing to the BCM. Instead of a costly trip to the dealer for a new module and programming, we installed one of our pre-programmed units. The install took less than an hour, and instantly, all the strange electrical issues were gone. It’s a common failure, but with a VIN-programmed part, it’s a straightforward fix.
Common Symptoms of a Failing BCM
- ✔ Erratic or non-functional power windows, door locks, and mirrors.
- ✔ Interior or exterior lights that won’t turn on or off correctly.
- ✔ The security or anti-theft system light is illuminated or flashing.
- ✔ Instrument cluster gauges or warning lights behaving erratically.
- ✔ Remote keyless entry (RKE) system failure.
- ✔ Diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) related to lost communication with the BCM.

Important Post-Installation Information
While this BCM is delivered programmed, some vehicles may require additional relearn or synchronization procedures after installation. These are simple steps for a qualified technician with a professional scan tool.
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is on after installation, a ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure is needed to sync the new BCM with the airbag system.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: A recalibration of the brake pedal position sensor may be required to ensure correct brake light and traction control operation.
Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician for vehicle-specific procedures.
