Restore Your Vehicle’s Electrical System with a Plug-and-Play Solution
Are you battling frustrating electrical gremlins in your Buick Regal, Chevy Cruze, or GMC Terrain? Flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows, a stubborn security system, or a car that refuses to start are all classic signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM is the central nervous system for your vehicle’s body electronics, and when it fails, it can cause a wide range of confusing and disruptive problems. A trip to the dealership often results in a hefty bill for a new module and expensive programming fees. Our BCM programming service offers a simple, reliable, and cost-effective alternative.
This service provides you with a replacement BCM, part number 13574844 (and other compatible numbers listed below), that is precisely programmed with the data from your vehicle’s original module. By cloning the essential information—including the VIN, immobilizer key data, and specific options—we deliver a unit that is truly plug-and-play. This eliminates the need for any additional programming or calibration with dealership tools, getting you back on the road quickly and confidently.
From the Diagnostic Bay
We had a 2011 GMC Terrain come into the shop that the owner described as ‘haunted.’ The horn would honk randomly, the interior lights would flicker at night, and sometimes the power locks would cycle on their own. They had already replaced the battery and checked the main grounds. After scanning the vehicle, we found a slew of communication error codes all pointing back to the BCM. Instead of a costly new module from the dealer, we performed a cloning service just like this one. After installing the programmed replacement, every single ghost in the machine was gone. It’s a perfect example of how a failing BCM can mimic a dozen other problems, and how the right solution can be surprisingly simple.
Common Symptoms of a Failing BCM
- ✔ Intermittent or non-functional power windows, door locks, or mirrors.
- ✔ Erratic behavior from interior or exterior lights (flickering, staying on, or not working at all).
- ✔ Security system faults, anti-theft light flashing, or a no-start/no-crank condition.
- ✔ Instrument cluster warning lights (like airbag or ABS) illuminating without a mechanical cause.
- ✔ Wipers, turn signals, or horn operating incorrectly or not at all.
- ✔ Diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) indicating a loss of communication with the BCM.

Your Programmed 2011 Regal Body Control Module Solution
Choosing our service for your 2011 Regal Body Control Module (or other compatible vehicle) means you are getting a reliable part that is ready for installation right out of the box. We stand behind our work, ensuring the data transfer is complete and accurate. This process maintains your vehicle’s original factory settings and security information, providing a seamless repair.
Important Post-Installation Information
While our goal is a 100% plug-and-play experience, certain vehicle systems may require a simple sync procedure after installation:
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is on after installation, a ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure is needed. This is a quick process that can be performed with a professional diagnostic tool to sync the modules.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: On some models, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration might be necessary to ensure correct brake light operation and traction control performance.
Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician if you are unsure about any post-installation steps.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a BCM cloning service?
BCM cloning is a process where we extract the unique, vehicle-specific data from your original Body Control Module and write it onto a replacement module. This includes the VIN, security information, and settings for your car’s options, making the replacement plug-and-play.
Why is this better than buying a used BCM from a junkyard?
A used BCM is programmed to the VIN and options of the vehicle it came from. Installing it in your car will cause system conflicts and likely a no-start condition. It would still require expensive dealership programming. Our service avoids this entirely.
Can I drive my vehicle while my BCM is being serviced?
No. The Body Control Module is a critical component required for the vehicle to operate. You will need to arrange for your vehicle to be stationary while the module is shipped to us and serviced.
What if my original BCM is water damaged or won’t communicate?
We utilize advanced tools that can often recover data even from non-communicating or damaged modules. However, in severe cases of physical or water damage, data recovery may not be possible. Please contact us before ordering if you suspect your module is severely compromised.
What tools are required for installation?
You will only need basic hand tools to access and remove/reinstall the BCM (typically located in the driver’s or passenger’s side kick panel or under the dash). No special programming equipment is needed.
