Restore Full Functionality to Your GM Vehicle with a Programmed BCM
Is your Cadillac, Buick, or GMC plagued by baffling electrical problems? One moment the power windows won’t work, the next the radio is acting up, or worse, you’re facing a no-start condition with the security light flashing. These aren’t just minor annoyances; they’re classic signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). As the central hub for your vehicle’s comfort and convenience features, a faulty BCM can make your car feel unreliable and frustrating. This service provides a reliable, plug-and-play replacement 2010 SRX Body Control Module, professionally programmed with your vehicle’s original data.
How Our Simple Cloning Service Works
Forget expensive dealership visits and the uncertainty of programming a new module. Our process is designed to be straightforward and get you back on the road quickly. After you place your order, we will provide you with instructions to ship your original BCM to our facility. Once we receive it, our expert technicians will transfer all the critical data—including the VIN, key information, and specific options—to this replacement module. We then ship the fully programmed, ready-to-install BCM back to you. It’s a seamless solution that saves you hundreds in programming fees.
Case Study: The SRX That Wouldn’t Cooperate
A customer brought in a 2010 Cadillac SRX with a strange combination of symptoms: the driver’s side power seat was inoperative, the liftgate would only open with the key fob, and the ‘Service Stabilitrak’ light would randomly appear. Initial scans pointed towards a communication error, but the codes were inconsistent. In my 20+ years of experience, intermittent and unrelated electrical faults almost always lead back to the BCM. After swapping in a known-good BCM, all issues vanished. We cloned his original module’s data onto a replacement, and the customer was back on the road the next day with all systems functioning perfectly—a fix that the dealership quoted would take a week and cost three times as much.
Common Signs of a Failing BCM
- ✔ Intermittent or non-functional power windows, door locks, or interior lights.
- ✔ Security system faults or a persistent anti-theft light that prevents the engine from starting.
- ✔ Inoperative radio, climate controls, or instrument cluster gauges.
- ✔ False warning messages on the driver information center (e.g., “Service Airbag,” “Service Stabilitrak”).
- ✔ Communication error codes, such as U0140 (Lost Communication With Body Control Module).
- ✔ Erratic behavior of turn signals or hazard lights.
Your Straightforward BCM Replacement Path
- ✔ Step 1: Locate your original BCM. On the 2010 SRX and many other compatible models, it’s typically found behind the driver’s side of the dashboard or in the LH kick panel area.
- ✔ Step 2: Safety First: Disconnect the negative battery terminal to prevent any electrical shorts.
- ✔ Step 3: Carefully unplug the electrical connectors from the BCM and remove any mounting bolts or clips.
- ✔ Step 4: Securely package and ship your original module to us using the instructions we provide after your purchase.
- ✔ Step 5: Once you receive the programmed replacement from us, simply install it by reversing the removal steps. Reconnect the electrical plugs and mount it securely.
- ✔ Step 6: Reconnect the negative battery terminal. Start the vehicle and test all functions (windows, locks, lights, radio, etc.) to confirm the repair.
Important Post-Installation Information
While our cloning service makes this a true plug-and-play repair, some vehicle systems may require a quick sync-up. If your airbag warning light is illuminated after installation, a professional scan tool is needed to perform the “Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM” procedure. Additionally, some models may require a Brake Pedal Position Relearn to ensure proper traction control and brake light operation. Always consult a factory service manual for vehicle-specific details.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a cloning service and why do I need it?
Cloning is the process of transferring your vehicle’s specific configuration data (like VIN and security information) from your old BCM to this replacement one. This makes the new module a perfect match for your car, eliminating the need for expensive and complex dealership programming.
Is this a plug-and-play part?
Yes! Because we program the module with your car’s original data, it will be ready to install and function right out of the box. No additional programming is required on your end for the core functions.
How long does the programming service take?
We pride ourselves on a fast turnaround. We will program and ship your replacement BCM back to you within 1-2 business days of receiving your original module.
Do I need to send my keys with the module?
No, you do not need to send your keys. All the necessary key data is stored within your original BCM, and we will transfer it directly to the replacement unit.
What if my airbag light comes on after installation?
This can occasionally happen as the BCM communicates with the airbag system (SDM). A simple “Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM” procedure with a professional scan tool will sync the modules and turn off the light.
Is there a core charge for my old BCM?
No, there is no core charge. We only need your original module to perform the data transfer service. You can keep your old part after the service is complete.
