Restore Your Vehicle’s Electrical System to Perfect Order
Are you experiencing frustrating and unpredictable electrical issues in your Cadillac SRX or other GM vehicle? Flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows and locks, a security system that acts up, or dashboard warning lights that won’t go away are common signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). This vital component is the central hub for your vehicle’s body electronics, and when it fails, it can make driving a stressful experience. Put an end to the guesswork and restore your vehicle’s proper function with our expertly programmed BCM.
Common Symptoms & Your Solution
If you’re dealing with any of the following, a failing BCM is the likely culprit. This pre-programmed module is the definitive solution to resolve these issues and get your vehicle operating as it should.
- Intermittent or non-working power windows, door locks, or interior lights
- Erratic instrument cluster behavior or warning messages
- Security system faults or the engine refusing to start
- Communication error codes (U-codes) when scanned with a diagnostic tool
- Malfunctioning HVAC controls or radio functions
An Expert’s Insight: Why Pre-Programmed is the Only Way to Go
As a technician with over two decades of experience, I’ve seen countless vehicle owners try to save a few dollars by buying a used BCM from a salvage yard. This almost always leads to more headaches. A BCM is not a simple ‘swap-and-go’ part; it’s coded specifically to the features and VIN of its original vehicle. Installing a used, un-programmed module will, at best, not work and, at worst, create new, more confusing electrical problems. Our service eliminates that entire ordeal. We take a quality module, flash it with the latest official GM software for your exact VIN, so it arrives ready for a straightforward installation, saving you the time, expense, and hassle of a dealership visit.

Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly does the Body Control Module do?
The BCM is essentially the brain for your vehicle’s body electronics. It controls non-engine related functions like power windows, door locks, interior and exterior lighting, security systems, wipers, and often communicates with the climate control and radio systems. When it fails, these systems can become unreliable.
How do I provide my VIN for programming?
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 this information, as the programming is essential for the module to function in your vehicle.
Is this a simple plug-and-play installation?
For most functions, yes. Because we program it to your VIN, the main systems will work upon installation. However, as noted in our policies, certain vehicles may require a simple ‘relearn’ or ‘sync’ procedure for the airbag system (if the warning light appears) or the brake pedal position sensor. These procedures require a professional scan tool and are sometimes necessary to fully sync the new BCM with all of your vehicle’s subsystems.
Will this BCM fix my specific problem?
This module is the direct solution for issues caused by a faulty BCM. If you are experiencing several of the symptoms listed (erratic lights, window/lock failures, security faults), it is highly likely this will resolve them. However, we always recommend a proper diagnosis by a qualified technician to confirm the BCM is the point of failure before ordering.
What happens if I don’t perform the post-installation procedures?
If your vehicle requires them, not performing the procedures can result in lingering issues. For example, if the airbag system sync is needed, the airbag warning light will remain on. If a brake pedal position relearn is needed, your brake lights or traction control may not function correctly. It’s important to have these completed if necessary for full vehicle safety and functionality.
Do I need to send my old BCM back to you?
No. This product has no core charge. You are free to keep your original module.
