This is the smartest way to fix your vehicle’s electrical issues correctly and efficiently.

Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly does a Body Control Module (BCM) do?
The BCM acts as the central computer 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 more. When it fails, these systems can behave erratically or stop working altogether.
Do I need to do any programming or flashing myself?
No. The main benefit of our service is that we program the module to your vehicle’s specific VIN before we ship it. This means it arrives ready for installation without the need for any special diagnostic tools or a trip to the dealership for programming.
Why is providing my VIN so important?
Your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) contains critical information about the specific options and systems installed in your vehicle from the factory. Programming the BCM with your VIN ensures all features work correctly and that the module communicates properly with the other computers in your vehicle.
What if my airbag light comes on after installation?
In some cases, the new BCM may need to be synced with the airbag system (SDM). This is a simple procedure called ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ that can be performed by a qualified technician with a professional scan tool if the airbag light appears after installation.
Where is the BCM located on my Savana Van?
On most GM vans like the Savana and Express, the Body Control Module is typically located in the center dash area. However, location can vary by model and year. We always recommend consulting a service manual for your specific vehicle to confirm the exact location before beginning the repair.
Is this part difficult to install?
For someone with moderate mechanical experience, the physical replacement is straightforward. The primary difficulty with BCM replacement is typically the programming, which we handle for you. Please note that some vehicles may require additional relearn procedures (like for the brake pedal position sensor) after installation, which may require a professional scan tool.
