Expert Insight: The Power of Pre-Programming
Many people consider buying a used BCM from a salvage yard to save money, but this is often a mistake. A used BCM is programmed to the donor vehicle’s specific options and VIN. Installing it in your car will, at best, result in features not working correctly, and at worst, prevent the car from starting at all. Our process eliminates that gamble. By flashing the module with the latest GM software and coding it to your exact VIN, we deliver a part that integrates seamlessly with your vehicle’s existing systems, just like a new one from the factory, but without the dealer price tag.
Important Post-Installation Information
While this BCM is designed for a straightforward installation, some vehicle systems may require a recalibration procedure after the new module is installed. This is a normal part of the process and can typically be performed by a qualified technician with a professional scan tool.
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is on after installation, the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure is needed to sync the systems.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: A brake pedal position sensor recalibration may be necessary for proper brake light and traction control function.
Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician for vehicle-specific procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Body Control Module (BCM) do?
The BCM is a computer in your vehicle that controls and monitors many of the non-engine-related electronic functions. This includes power windows, locks, lights, wipers, the security system, and the instrument cluster.
Why do you need my VIN number?
We require your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) to program the BCM with the correct software and vehicle-specific options. This ensures the module works perfectly with your car’s features right out of the box, making it a true plug-and-play solution.
Is this a difficult part to install?
For someone with moderate DIY mechanical experience, the physical replacement is generally straightforward as the BCM is often located under the dash. The main benefit of our service is that the difficult and expensive software programming is already done for you, which is the biggest hurdle in a BCM replacement.
What if my airbag light comes on after installation?
This is a possibility and does not indicate a faulty part. It simply means the new BCM needs to be electronically introduced to the airbag system’s computer (SDM). A technician with a professional scan tool can perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure to resolve this.
Do I have to send my old BCM back?
No. We do not charge a core fee, so you can keep your original module. There is no need to return any parts to us.
How do I know if this BCM will fit my vehicle?
The best way to ensure compatibility is to match the part number from your original BCM to one of the numbers listed in our description. If you cannot find the part number, please check the detailed fitment list or contact us with your VIN for assistance. This part is a confirmed fit for a 2007-2009 Equinox Body Control Module among many other GM models.
