Restore Flawless Control to Your Cadillac SRX
Are you battling a cascade of frustrating electrical issues in your 2011-2012 Cadillac SRX? Flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows and locks, a security system that has a mind of its own, or even a vehicle that refuses to start can all point to a single, critical component: a failing Body Control Module (BCM). Don’t let these electronic gremlins diminish the luxury and reliability you expect. This is your definitive, hassle-free solution to restore complete and proper function to your vehicle’s sophisticated systems.
Common Symptoms & Your Solution
A faulty BCM can disrupt communication across your vehicle’s network, leading to a wide range of confusing symptoms. If you’re experiencing any of the following, a failing BCM is the most likely cause:
- Unresponsive power windows, door locks, or mirrors
- Interior or exterior lights operating erratically or not at all
- Erroneous warning lights on the instrument cluster (e.g., security, airbag)
- Intermittent no-start or no-crank conditions
- Problems with the climate control or radio functions
- Diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) related to communication errors (U-codes)
This professionally programmed Body Control Module is the answer. We perform a specialized cloning service, transferring the precise data from your original BCM to this replacement unit. The result is a true plug-and-play module that integrates seamlessly with your Cadillac, eliminating the need for expensive and time-consuming programming at the dealership. This service covers a wide range of part numbers, including 13580198, 13583450, 13579004, 13582396, and more.

An Expert’s Note on Modern Vehicle Electronics
The BCM is the central nervous system for your Cadillac’s comfort and convenience features. It manages dozens of inputs and outputs, communicating constantly over the vehicle’s GMLAN data bus. When it fails, this communication breaks down, creating chaos. Simply installing a used BCM won’t work, as it contains the incorrect security and vehicle-specific data. Our cloning process is a meticulous, data-level transfer that ensures the replacement module is an exact electronic twin of your original, preserving the integrity of your entire vehicle system.
Important Post-Installation Information
While this module is designed for a simple installation, some vehicle systems may require a quick recalibration procedure after the BCM is replaced. Please be aware of the following possibilities:
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is illuminated after installation, a professional scan tool is needed to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure. This syncs the BCM with the airbag module.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: On some models, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration may be necessary to ensure correct brake light operation and traction control performance.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the programming/cloning service work?
After you place your order, we will provide you with instructions to ship your original BCM to us. Once we receive it, our technicians will extract the unique data and flash it onto the replacement module. We then ship the ready-to-install BCM back to you, typically within 1-2 business days.
Do I need to send my keys or any other parts?
No, we only need your original Body Control Module. The vital security and vehicle-specific information is contained within the module itself, so no keys or other components are necessary for the cloning process.
Is this compatible with my 2011-2012 Cadillac SRX BCM?
Yes, this service is specifically for the 2011-2012 Cadillac SRX and is compatible with a long list of interchangeable part numbers, including 13580198, 13583450, 13579004, and many others listed in the fitment data. The cloning process ensures it works perfectly for your specific vehicle.
What tools are required for installation?
Installation typically requires basic hand tools to access the BCM, which is usually located in the driver’s or passenger’s side kick panel or dash area. The most important part is that the replacement module is plug-and-play, requiring no special electronic tools for programming.
What if an airbag light appears after I install it?
This is a known possibility. The airbag system (SDM) may need to be electronically re-synced with the new BCM. This is a simple procedure called ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ that can be performed by any qualified repair shop with a professional-grade diagnostic tool.
