Common Signs of a Failing BCM
Do I need to do any programming myself?
No. This module comes fully programmed to your vehicle’s VIN. Just provide us with your VIN during checkout, and we handle all the programming before shipping it to you.
Is this a used or repaired part?
This is a high-quality, tested replacement part, programmed with the latest stable software from GM for your vehicle. It is guaranteed to perform correctly.
What happens if my airbag light comes on after I install it?
This is uncommon, but if it happens, it means the new BCM needs to be synced with the airbag module (SDM). A mechanic with a professional diagnostic tool can perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure to resolve this.
Why is a 2002 Avalanche 1500 BCM so important?
The BCM acts as the central command for most of your truck’s electronic body accessories, including power locks, windows, security system, interior lighting, and more. When it fails, these systems become unreliable.
Do I need to send my old part back?
No, there is no core charge for this item. You can keep your original module, saving you the hassle and cost of return shipping.
