An Expert’s Note on VIN Programming
As a technician, I’ve seen countless vehicle owners buy used or non-programmed modules online, only to find they don’t work.

Our VIN-specific programming isn’t just a convenience—it’s the only way to guarantee the job is done right the first time. This is the most crucial step in a successful 2002 Yukon XL 1500 BCM replacement.

This simple step is the key to avoiding compatibility headaches and restoring your vehicle to its reliable, fully functional state. Get the right part, programmed correctly, and solve your electrical problems for good. A proper 2002 Yukon XL 1500 BCM replacement is the key to long-term reliability.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the VIN programming process work?
After you place your order, you provide us with your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN. Our technicians use this number to access the latest official GM software for your specific model and options. We then flash this software onto the BCM, so it’s ready for installation when it arrives at your door.
Will this fit other 2002 GM models besides the Yukon XL?
Yes. This BCM is compatible with a wide range of 2002 GM full-size trucks and SUVs, including the GMC Yukon, Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban 1500, Avalanche 1500, Cadillac Escalade, and Escalade EXT. Please check the fitment list on this page to confirm compatibility.
Why is my airbag light on after installation?
In some cases, the new BCM needs to be electronically introduced to the vehicle’s airbag system (SDM). This is a security feature. If the airbag light is on after installation, a technician will need to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure with a professional-grade scan tool to sync the modules.
What tools are needed for installation?
Basic hand tools, such as a socket set and a trim removal tool, are typically all that’s needed to access and replace the BCM, which is located under the steering column. However, as noted, a professional diagnostic tool may be required for post-installation procedures like the airbag sync or brake pedal position relearn.
Is this a difficult part to replace myself?
For someone with basic mechanical skills, the physical replacement is straightforward. The BCM is typically held in by a few bolts or clips in an accessible location. The most important part is ensuring any necessary post-install electronic procedures are performed if warning lights appear.
Do I have to send my old part back?
No. This product comes with no core charge. You can keep, recycle, or dispose of your original module at your convenience without any impact on your purchase or warranty.
