Restore Full Electrical Function to Your GM Vehicle
Are you experiencing bizarre electrical problems in your 2010 Cadillac Escalade or another compatible GM vehicle? Issues like flickering interior or exterior lights, power windows and locks operating intermittently, or strange warning messages on your dashboard are common signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM is the central nervous system for your vehicle’s body electronics, and when it fails, it can cause a wide range of frustrating and unpredictable problems. This replacement Body Control Module is the reliable, straightforward solution to get your vehicle back to 100%.
From the Diagnostic Bay
We had a 2010 Yukon Denali (which uses this exact BCM) come into the shop with a list of complaints that seemed unrelated. The driver’s power window wouldn’t work, the radio display would randomly go blank, and the anti-theft light would stay on, preventing the vehicle from starting. After checking fuses and wiring, all diagnostics pointed to an internal failure in the BCM. Instead of a complicated repair requiring expensive dealer tools, we installed one of our pre-programmed modules. The installation was simple, and all the strange electrical gremlins were gone instantly. It’s a common failure, but thankfully, it’s a simple fix with the right part.
Solving Issues with Your 2010 Escalade Body Control Module
Don’t let a faulty BCM disrupt your driving experience. This module is a direct replacement for a wide array of GM trucks, SUVs, and vans. We take the guesswork and complexity out of the repair by pre-programming the module to your vehicle’s specific Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). This ensures that when you receive the part, it’s ready to be installed and communicate correctly with the other computers in your vehicle. Simply provide us with your VIN after purchase, and we’ll handle the programming with the latest GM software updates before it ships.
Common Symptoms of a Failing GM BCM
- โ Erratic or non-functional power windows, door locks, or mirrors.
- โ Interior dome lights or exterior lights staying on or not turning on at all.
- โ The security system light flashing, potentially causing a no-start condition.
- โ Inconsistent or non-working radio and climate controls.
- โ False warning lights appearing on the instrument cluster (e.g., ‘Service 4WD’).
- โ Horn honking unexpectedly or not working when pressed.
Important Post-Installation Information
While our VIN programming handles the majority of the setup, some vehicles may require a simple relearn procedure after installation. This is a normal part of the vehicle’s security and safety systems recognizing the new component.
- Airbag System Sync: If your airbag warning light is illuminated after installing the new BCM, a technician will need to perform a ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure with a professional scan tool. This syncs the new BCM with the airbag system.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: On some models, a brake pedal position sensor relearn may be needed to ensure correct brake light operation and to keep the traction control system happy.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Body Control Module do on my Escalade?
The BCM acts as a central computer for your vehicle’s non-engine related electronics. It controls functions like power windows, locks, lights, the security system, wipers, and the radio.
Is this 2010 Escalade Body Control Module difficult to install?
The physical installation is typically straightforward, often located under the dash or steering column. Because we program it to your VIN, you avoid the need for expensive dealer-specific programming tools, making it a DIY-friendly repair for many. Some vehicles may require the additional relearn procedures mentioned above.
How do I provide my VIN for programming?
After you complete your purchase, you will receive instructions on how to send us your 17-digit VIN. We cannot ship your part until we receive this information, as the programming is essential for the part to function.
What if my airbag light is on after installation?
This is a normal security measure. A qualified technician with a professional diagnostic tool will need to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure to sync the new module with the airbag system and clear the light.
Do I need to send my old BCM back?
No. There is no core charge for this part. You can keep your original module.
