Is Your Saturn Outlook Acting Possessed?
Are you dealing with a frustrating storm of electrical problems in your family’s SUV? Flickering dashboard lights, power windows and locks with a mind of their own, or a security system that randomly prevents the engine from starting?

The BCM is the central nervous system for your vehicle’s comfort and convenience features, and when it malfunctions, it can make your reliable Saturn Outlook feel unpredictable and unsafe.

Expert Insight: The Electrical Domino Effect
As a technician, I’ve seen firsthand how a failing BCM can send a vehicle owner down a rabbit hole of expensive, unnecessary repairs. You might replace a window motor, only to find the problem persists. Why? Because the BCM is the command center. It’s the brain that tells the motor to operate. When its internal logic fails, it sends corrupt signals—or no signals at all—to dozens of components. Replacing a single, central component like this pre-programmed Saturn Outlook Body Control Module 20864768 often solves a whole list of seemingly unrelated issues at once, restoring order to the entire vehicle and providing immense peace of mind.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a BCM and what does it do?
The Body Control Module (BCM) is a computer in your vehicle that manages and controls electronic accessories. This includes power windows, locks, seats, lights, the alarm system, and even the instrument panel gauges. It acts as a central hub for your car’s body electronics.
How do I know if my BCM is failing?
Common signs include erratic behavior from your electronic accessories, such as lights flickering, windows not working, or the security system acting up. You may also see multiple, unrelated warning lights on your dash or have a mechanic diagnose communication errors with a scan tool.
What happens after I place my order?
After you complete your purchase, you must provide us with your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN. This is crucial as we use it to program the module with the correct software and settings for your specific vehicle configuration before we ship it to you.
Do I need to send my old module back?
No. This product comes with no core charge. You can keep, recycle, or dispose of your original BCM at your convenience, simplifying the entire process for you.
What if my airbag light comes on after installation?
In some cases, the new BCM may need to be synchronized with the airbag system (SDM). This is a simple procedure called ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ that can be performed by any professional shop with a compatible high-end diagnostic tool. This is only necessary if the airbag light is on after the BCM is installed.
Is any other programming needed after installation?
While our programming covers all primary functions, some vehicles may require a ‘Brake Pedal Position Relearn’ procedure to ensure perfect brake light and traction control operation. This is a simple procedure that can be done with a professional scan tool.
