Expert Insight: Why VIN Programming is Non-Negotiable
In modern vehicles like your Savana, the BCM is the central command center for dozens of body-related functions. It communicates with the engine computer, transmission module, airbag system, and more. Simply swapping a used BCM from another vehicle will cause major system conflicts and a no-start condition because it’s not coded to your van’s unique options and security protocols. Our VIN-specific programming ensures every component communicates correctly from the moment you plug it in, just like the original factory part. This is the key to a successful and lasting repair.

Frequently Asked Questions
What information do I need to provide for programming?
After you complete your purchase, you will need to provide us with your vehicle’s 17-digit VIN (Vehicle Identification Number). This is essential for us to program the BCM to match your van’s exact configuration and features.
Is this a difficult part to install?
The BCM is typically located in the center dash area on Savana and Express vans. Installation is generally straightforward for someone with moderate mechanical experience, involving disconnecting the battery and swapping electrical connectors. However, we always recommend consulting a service manual for your specific vehicle. The key benefit of our service is that the complex programming is already done for you.
What if my airbag light comes on after installation?
In some cases, the new BCM may need to be synced with the airbag system (SDM). This is a standard procedure called ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ that can be performed by a technician with a professional-grade scan tool. This is only necessary if the airbag warning light is illuminated after the new module is installed.
Do I need to do a brake pedal relearn?
A brake pedal position sensor relearn may be necessary on some models to ensure proper brake light and traction control operation. This is a simple procedure that can also be completed with a compatible diagnostic tool. Check your service manual for specifics.
Will this fix my specific electrical problem?
This 2013-2014 Savana 1500 BCM 22820314 is the solution for a wide range of issues related to body electronics. While it resolves the most common symptoms, proper vehicle diagnostics are always recommended to confirm the BCM is the source of the fault before ordering.
