Tired of Your Car’s Bizarre Electrical Behavior?
Is your Buick LaCrosse, Chevy Cruze, or Cadillac SRX acting possessed? Flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows, random warning chimes, or worseโa car that refuses to startโare all classic signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). This central command unit governs dozens of your vehicle’s comfort and security features, and when it fails, it can cause a cascade of frustrating and unpredictable problems. Instead of facing a costly trip to the dealership for a new module and expensive programming, we offer a precise, plug-and-play solution that gets you back on the road with confidence.
Common Symptoms & Your Solution
A faulty BCM can manifest in numerous ways. You might be experiencing issues with your interior or exterior lighting, power locks, remote keyless entry, or even instrument cluster warnings. Our professional cloning service is the definitive solution. We transfer the unique, vehicle-specific data from your original BCM directly onto this replacement unit. This means the replacement module is a perfect digital twin of your old one, retaining all your vehicle’s specific settings and security information.

Expert Insight: Why Cloning is the Superior Solution
When a BCM fails, many people consider a used module from a salvage yard. The problem is that a BCM is not a simple component; it’s coded specifically to the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and options of the car it came from. Installing a used module without proper programming will, at best, not work correctly and, at worst, trigger the anti-theft system and prevent your car from starting. Our cloning service completely avoids these issues. By precisely copying your original data, we ensure the replacement BCM works seamlessly with your engine computer, keys, and all other vehicle systems, just as the original did.
Important Post-Installation Information
While our goal is a seamless installation, the complexity of modern vehicle systems means a couple of minor recalibrations may be necessary after you’ve installed the BCM. Please be aware of the following:
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is illuminated after installation, a simple “Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM” procedure must be performed using a professional-grade scan tool. This syncs the new BCM with the airbag system. This is only required if the light is on.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: On some models, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration might be needed to ensure your brake lights and traction control system function correctly.
Disclaimer: Specific procedures can vary by vehicle. Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician for guidance.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the cloning and programming process work?
It’s simple. After you place your order, we will contact you with instructions to ship your original BCM to our facility. Once we receive it, our technicians will extract the unique data and flash it onto the replacement module. We then ship the plug-and-play replacement back to you, typically within 1-2 business days.
Is this BCM truly plug-and-play?
Yes, the core functionality is 100% plug-and-play. The 2011-2012 Buick LaCrosse BCM Programming Service ensures your car will start and run without any additional security programming. However, as noted above, some subsystems like the airbag or brake pedal sensor may require a simple relearn procedure with a scan tool after installation.
What happens if the airbag light comes on after installation?
This is a known possibility and is not a sign of a defective part. It simply means the BCM needs to be electronically ‘introduced’ to the airbag module (SDM). A qualified technician with a professional scan tool can perform the “Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM” procedure to sync the modules and turn off the light.
Will this fix my specific electrical problem?
This BCM will fix issues directly caused by a faulty Body Control Module. While the symptoms we’ve listed are very common, we always recommend a proper diagnosis by a qualified mechanic to confirm the BCM is the root cause of your problem before ordering.
How long does the entire service take?
Once we receive your original module, our in-house service is very fast, usually taking 1-2 business days. The total time will depend on the shipping times to and from our facility.
Do I need to send my keys with the module?
No. Because we are cloning all the data from your original BCM, including the key information, your existing keys will work perfectly with the new module upon installation. There is no need to send us your keys.
