Restore the reliability and safety of your vehicle with a BCM you can trust. This is the correct 2012 Captiva Sport Body Control Module to get you back on the road with confidence.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to program this BCM after I receive it?
No. The main benefit of our service is that we program the Body Control Module to your vehicle’s specific VIN before we ship it. It arrives ready to be installed.
Where is the BCM located on a 2012 Captiva Sport?
On the 2012 Captiva Sport, the BCM is typically located in the center dash area. We always recommend consulting a vehicle-specific service manual for the exact location and removal procedure.
What is a VIN and why do you need it?
The VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) is a unique 17-digit code for your specific car. We use it to load the correct software and settings onto the BCM so it communicates perfectly with the other modules in your vehicle, like the engine computer and instrument cluster.
Will I need to perform any other steps after installation?
In some cases, yes. Two common procedures that may be required are an ‘Airbag System Sync’ (if the airbag light is on) and a ‘Brake Pedal Position Relearn’. These procedures require a professional-grade diagnostic tool and ensure all related safety systems are functioning correctly.
Does this BCM fit other GM vehicles?
Yes, absolutely. This BCM is a compatible replacement for a very wide range of GM cars, trucks, and SUVs from roughly 2006 to 2013, including the Acadia, Traverse, Impala, Tahoe, Express vans, and many more. The extensive part number list on our page confirms its wide-ranging compatibility.
