This replacement BCM is the definitive solution to restore your car’s functionality and peace of mind.
This isn’t just a replacement part; it’s a complete, ready-to-install solution.

Simply provide your VIN at checkout, and we’ll handle the rest.
Common Symptoms of a Failing BCM
- ✔ Erratic power window and power lock operation
- ✔ Interior or exterior lights not working, flickering, or staying on
- ✔ Instrument cluster gauges behaving unpredictably or not working at all
- ✔ Security system faults or intermittent no-start conditions
- ✔ Remote keyless entry (RKE) system failure

Replacing the BCM can be an intimidating task, primarily due to the need for specialized programming. Our service eliminates that barrier.

Post-Installation Notes
While our programming handles the majority of the setup, some vehicles may require minor post-installation procedures. For instance, if the airbag light is on after installation, a simple ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure may be needed using a professional scan tool. Similarly, a ‘Brake Pedal Position Relearn’ might be necessary on certain models to ensure proper brake light and traction control function. These are standard procedures for this type of repair.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a BCM and what does it do?
The Body Control Module (BCM) is a computer in your vehicle that controls and monitors a wide range of electronic accessories not related to the engine, such as power windows, locks, lights, wipers, and the security system.
Do I need to have this module programmed?
No. We pre-program the module to your car’s VIN before we ship it. This makes the installation process much smoother and saves you from needing to visit a dealer for programming.
How do I provide my VIN?
After you complete your purchase, you will need to send us your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). We cannot ship your order until we receive your VIN to program the module.
What if my airbag light is on after installation?
This can happen occasionally. It means the new BCM needs to be synced with the airbag system’s Supplemental Inflatable Restraint (SIR) module. A technician with a capable scan tool can perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure to resolve this.
Is this a difficult part to replace myself?
For the 2006-2007 Monte Carlo, the BCM is located on the left-hand side of the steering column. Replacement is manageable for someone with basic mechanical skills and tools. However, always consult a service manual for your specific vehicle and be aware that some post-install procedures may require a professional scan tool.
