If you’re dealing with bizarre electrical issues in your 2010 Cadillac SRX, you’re not alone. Flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows, a radio that has a mind of its own, or worse, a car that won’t start—these are all classic signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). As the central computer for your vehicle’s comfort and convenience features, when the BCM goes down, it can create a cascade of frustrating and seemingly unrelated problems. The dealership solution is often a new module followed by a costly programming session. We offer a smarter, more direct fix.
This is a comprehensive programming service for your 2010 SRX BCM. You simply send us your original BCM, and we transfer all its vital data—including VIN, mileage, and key programming—to this fully tested replacement unit. The result? A module that is 100% plug-and-play. No need for expensive trips to the dealer or specialized scan tools for programming. We handle the complex part, so you can get your SRX back to normal with a simple installation.
A Technician’s Notebook
I remember a 2010 Cadillac SRX that came into the shop with a laundry list of complaints from the owner. The dome lights would stay on, the driver’s side window wouldn’t go down, and intermittently, the car wouldn’t recognize the key fob. We checked wiring and fuses, but everything pointed back to the BCM. The owner was worried about a multi-day repair and a huge bill from the dealer. Instead, we used this exact cloning service. Once we received the programmed replacement, the physical swap took less than an hour. Every single issue was resolved instantly. It’s a powerful fix that saves customers time, money, and a massive headache.
Is Your Vehicle Showing These Telltale Signs?
A failing BCM can manifest in numerous ways. If you’re experiencing any of the following, this module is the likely solution for your 2010 SRX BCM issues:
- ✔ Erratic or non-functional power windows, door locks, and interior/exterior lights.
- ✔ The security system light stays on, or the car won’t start.
- ✔ Dashboard warning lights appearing for no reason (e.g., ABS, Traction Control).
- ✔ Communication loss codes with other modules, such as U0140 (Lost Communication With Body Control Module).
- ✔ Radio or climate control systems behaving unpredictably.
- ✔ Horn honking unexpectedly or not working at all.
Your Straightforward BCM Swap Guide
Installing your pre-programmed BCM is designed to be a simple process. Here’s a general guide to get you started:
- Safety First: Always disconnect the negative terminal from your vehicle’s battery before starting any electrical work.
- Locate the BCM: On the 2010 Cadillac SRX, the Body Control Module is typically located on the left (driver’s) side of the dashboard, often behind the lower dash panel.
- Remove Trim: Carefully remove any plastic trim panels necessary to access the module.
- Disconnect and Remove: Unplug the electrical connectors from the old BCM. They have locking tabs that need to be depressed. Once disconnected, unbolt the module from its mounting bracket.
- Install the New Module: Mount your new, pre-programmed BCM in the same location and securely fasten it. Reconnect all electrical connectors, ensuring they click into place.
- Reconnect and Test: Reconnect the negative battery terminal. Turn the key to the ‘ON’ position and test all body functions—lights, windows, locks, etc.—to confirm the repair.
Important Post-Installation Note: In some cases, additional steps may be required. If your airbag light is on, a professional scan tool is needed to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure. A ‘Brake Pedal Position Relearn’ may also be necessary. Always consult a factory service manual for vehicle-specific details.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the programming service work?
After you purchase, we will provide you with instructions to ship your original BCM to us. Once we receive it, we extract the unique data and program it into the replacement module. We then ship the ready-to-install module back to you.
Do I need to send my keys?
No, you do not need to send your keys. All key-related information is stored in your original BCM, and we transfer it directly to the replacement. Your existing keys will work seamlessly.
Is this a plug-and-play solution?
Yes, because we clone the data from your original module, the replacement is fully programmed and does not require a trip to the dealership for software installation. In rare cases, a minor relearn procedure like for the brake pedal position sensor may be needed.
What if my original BCM is not communicating?
Even if your original BCM is failing, we can often still extract the necessary data for the cloning process. Please contact us with the specifics of your module’s failure if you have concerns.
Is there a core charge for my old part?
No, there is no core charge. You will ship your original module to us for the data transfer service, but you will not be charged a separate core fee.
