Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly does a Body Control Module do?
The Body Control Module, or BCM, is a computer that supervises and controls the functions of your vehicle’s body electronics. This includes power windows, power locks, interior and exterior lighting, the anti-theft system, wipers, and many other comfort and convenience features.
Why do you need my VIN number?
Your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is essential because it allows us to program the BCM with the specific software and settings for your Suburban’s exact options and features. This ensures all systems communicate correctly after installation, making the process plug-and-play and avoiding a trip to the dealer.
Is this a difficult part to install?
For someone with moderate mechanical experience, the installation is straightforward. The BCM is typically located under the driver’s side of the dashboard. The main challenge is accessing it. Once accessed, it’s a matter of disconnecting the battery and swapping the electrical connectors. Since our module is a 2010 Suburban 1500 Programmed Body Control Module, no post-install computer programming is required, though some minor relearn procedures may be necessary.
What if my airbag light is on after I install it?
In some cases, the new BCM may need to be synced with the airbag system (SDM). If the airbag warning light is on after installation, a professional scan tool is required to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure. This is a simple sync that a qualified repair shop can perform.
Will this module fit other vehicles besides a 2010 Suburban?
Yes. This BCM is a direct replacement for a wide range of GM cars, trucks, and SUVs from the mid-2000s to the early 2010s. Please review the detailed fitment list on this page to confirm it matches your specific make, model, and year.
