Are you battling frustrating and unpredictable electrical issues in your Chevrolet, Buick, or GMC? Flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows, a security system that acts up, or even a vehicle that refuses to start can all point to a failing Body Control Module (BCM). Don’t let these electrical gremlins disrupt your daily life. This is the definitive, hassle-free solution to restore your vehicle’s electronic systems to perfect working order.
This listing is for a comprehensive 13580697 BCM programming service. We take all the guesswork and expensive dealership trips out of the equation. The process is simple: you send us your original BCM, and we professionally transfer all of its critical data—including the VIN, mileage, and key information—to a quality-tested replacement unit. The BCM you receive back will be 100% plug-and-play, ready for installation without any further programming required.
Common Symptoms & Your Solution
A failing BCM can cause a wide range of confusing symptoms. If you’re experiencing any of the following, this service is your answer:
- Intermittent or non-working power windows, door locks, or interior lights
- Erratic instrument cluster behavior or warning lights
- Security system faults or key fob recognition issues
- HVAC (heating and air conditioning) control problems
- A no-start condition where the engine cranks but won’t fire
Our professional cloning service directly resolves these problems by creating a perfect electronic match for your vehicle, ensuring every function works just as it did from the factory.
Expert Insight: Why Our Cloning Service is the Smart Choice
Many people consider buying a used BCM from a junkyard, only to discover it won’t work. That’s because a BCM is the ‘brain’ for your car’s body electronics and is coded specifically to the vehicle it came from. Installing an unmatched BCM will lead to system conflicts, non-functional features, and ultimately, a mandatory and expensive programming session at a dealership. Our 13580697 BCM programming service bypasses this entire nightmare. By cloning your original data, we ensure the replacement module is an exact twin, preserving your vehicle’s unique identity and saving you hundreds in dealer fees and diagnostic time.

Frequently Asked Questions
How exactly does this programming service work?
It’s a simple 3-step process. 1) You purchase this service. 2) We provide you with instructions to ship your original BCM to our facility. 3) We clone the data to a replacement unit and ship it back to you, typically within 1-2 business days of receiving your original module.
Will I need to do any additional programming after installation?
No. The purpose of our 13580697 BCM programming service is to make the unit completely plug-and-play. However, on some vehicles, minor relearn procedures like the ‘Brake Pedal Position Relearn’ or ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ (for the airbag system) may be necessary if a warning light appears. These are simple procedures for any qualified technician with a professional scan tool.
What if my original BCM is completely dead or not communicating?
In many cases, even if the BCM is not functioning in the vehicle, we can still extract the necessary data for cloning. Please contact us before ordering if your module is severely damaged (e.g., water or fire damage) so we can confirm the likelihood of a successful data recovery.
How long does the entire process take?
We perform the cloning service and ship the programmed module back to you within 1-2 business days of receiving your original BCM. The total time depends on shipping transit times to and from our facility.
Is this a new or used BCM?
You will receive a high-quality, fully tested replacement BCM that has been programmed with your vehicle’s specific data. Every unit is verified for full functionality before being shipped.
