Restore Your Cadillac’s Sophistication and Reliability
Is your 2006-2011 Cadillac DTS suffering from strange and frustrating electrical issues? When a luxury vehicle’s features start to fail, it undermines the entire driving experience. This pre-programmed Body Control Module (BCM) is the definitive solution to restore the seamless operation you expect from your Cadillac, putting an end to the guesswork and getting you back on the road with confidence.
Common Symptoms & Your Solution
A failing BCM is the central nervous system of your vehicle’s electronics, and its failure can manifest in numerous ways. If you’re experiencing any of the following, this module is your solution:
- Power windows, door locks, or interior lights operating erratically or not at all.
- The security system engaging randomly or preventing the car from starting.
- Dashboard warning lights appearing without a clear cause.
- Inconsistent operation of the radio, climate control, or other accessories.
- Communication error codes (U-codes) stored in the vehicle’s diagnostic system.
Instead of paying for expensive dealership diagnostics and programming fees, this module arrives at your door flashed with the latest GM software and programmed specifically to your vehicle’s VIN. It’s a direct, effective fix for a complex problem.

Expert Insight: The Critical Role of VIN Programming
In a sophisticated vehicle like the Cadillac DTS, the BCM doesn’t just operate in isolation—it’s in constant communication with the Engine Control Module (ECM), Transmission Control Module (TCM), and various sensor modules. Using a generic, unprogrammed BCM is like dropping a stranger into a team that has worked together for years; communication breaks down, leading to new errors and unresolved issues. By programming the module to your specific VIN, we ensure it has the correct ‘digital handshake’ to integrate seamlessly, preserving all factory-installed options and security protocols for a true, lasting repair.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to do any programming myself?
No. The main programming is completed by us before the module is shipped. Simply provide your VIN during checkout, and the BCM will arrive ready for installation. In some cases, minor relearn procedures, such as for the brake pedal position sensor, may be necessary after installation.
Where is the BCM located on my 2006-2011 Cadillac DTS?
On the Cadillac DTS, the Body Control Module is typically located behind the glove box, on the right-hand side of the center dash area. Always disconnect the battery before attempting removal or installation.
How do I provide my Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)?
After you complete your purchase, you will need to send us a message with your 17-digit VIN. We cannot program and ship your BCM until we receive this information.
What if my airbag light is on after I install the new BCM?
This can occasionally happen. If the airbag warning light is illuminated after installation, a procedure called ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ will need to be performed by a technician with a professional-grade scan tool. This syncs the airbag system with the new BCM.
Is this a brand new part from the dealer?
This is a high-quality, fully tested replacement component that meets or exceeds original specifications. It has been meticulously inspected and programmed with the latest official software to ensure reliable performance.
