Restore Your Truck’s Brain and End Electrical Chaos
Are you dealing with bizarre and frustrating electrical issues in your GM truck or SUV? One minute the power windows work, the next they don’t. The security light flashes for no reason, the radio acts possessed, or worse, the vehicle refuses to start. These are classic signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM), the central command center for your vehicle’s electronics. This isn’t just an annoyance; it’s a critical failure that can leave you stranded. We offer a reliable, straightforward solution: a replacement BCM, professionally programmed to your vehicle’s specific VIN before it ever leaves our facility.

Important Post-Installation Information
While our programming handles the vast majority of functions, some GM vehicles of this era may require one or two simple relearn procedures after installation. These are standard industry procedures that can be performed by most automotive shops or with a capable bi-directional 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 modules.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: A recalibration of the brake pedal position sensor may be necessary for proper brake light and traction control operation.
Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician for vehicle-specific guidance.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a BCM and why is programming so important?
The Body Control Module (BCM) is a computer that manages most of your vehicle’s non-engine related electronics, like power windows, locks, lights, security system, and wipers. Programming it to your VIN is crucial because it loads the correct software and settings for your specific options package, ensuring everything works as the factory intended.
Is this BCM truly plug-and-play?
For most vehicles, yes. Because we pre-program the 2002 Yukon XL 1500 BCM to your VIN, it eliminates the need for dealership programming. In some cases, as noted above, a simple relearn procedure for the airbag or brake sensor may be required after installation, which is a standard step for this type of repair.
Where is the BCM located on my vehicle?
On most of the compatible trucks and SUVs like the Yukon, Tahoe, and Silverado, the BCM is located under the steering column. On vans like the Astro and Safari, it is typically found in the center of the dash. Always disconnect the battery before attempting removal or installation.
What happens if I don’t provide my VIN?
Providing your VIN is essential. We cannot ship the module without it, as the programming process is what makes this part work correctly in your vehicle. The order will be held until we receive the VIN from you.
My original part number isn’t on your list, but my vehicle is. Will it fit?
This module replaces several part numbers that are functionally identical. If your vehicle make, model, and year are on our fitment list, this unit is very likely the correct replacement. However, matching the part number is always the best way to guarantee compatibility.
Do I need special tools to install this?
Basic hand tools like a socket set and screwdrivers are typically all that’s needed for the physical installation. A professional diagnostic tool may be required for any post-installation relearn procedures, such as the airbag system sync.
