Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Body Control Module do?
The Body Control Module, or BCM, is a computer in your vehicle that controls and monitors many of its non-engine-related electronic functions. This includes power windows, door locks, the security system, interior and exterior lighting, wipers, and the HVAC system. When it fails, it can cause a wide variety of strange electrical problems.
Is this BCM truly “plug and play”?
Yes. Because we program the module to your vehicle’s specific VIN before we ship it, it is ready for installation right out of the box. In most cases, no further programming or setup is required. Simply disconnect the battery, swap the modules, and reconnect the battery.
What if my airbag light stays on after installation?
In some vehicles, if the airbag light was on due to a BCM communication fault (like DTC B1001), an additional procedure called “Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM” may be needed. This is a simple sync procedure that can be performed with a professional-grade scan tool and ensures the new BCM is properly communicating with the airbag system.
Do I need to return my old BCM?
No. We do not require a core return for this part. You can keep your old module, which saves you the time and expense of shipping it back to us.
