Frequently Asked Questions
How exactly does the cloning service work?
It’s simple. After you place your order, we will contact you with instructions to ship your original BCM to us. Once we receive it, our technicians will extract the unique programming and security data and flash it onto the replacement module. We then ship the ready-to-install module back to you.
Will I need to do any programming after I install it?
No. The entire point of our service is to handle all the programming for you. The replacement 2013-2014 Sonic Body Control Module will be a perfect digital copy of your original, making it a true plug-and-play part.
What if my original BCM is completely dead or damaged?
In many cases, even if the BCM is failing, we can still extract the necessary data. Please contact us before ordering if your module has significant physical damage (fire, water, etc.) or if a previous technician has attempted to program it unsuccessfully.
Is this part difficult to install myself?
For the Chevy Sonic, the BCM is located in the right-hand rear quarter panel area. It’s typically accessible by removing some interior trim. For a DIYer with basic tools and experience, it’s a manageable job. However, we always recommend consulting a service manual or a qualified technician if you’re unsure.
What are the post-install procedures you mentioned?
On some vehicles, after installing the cloned BCM, a couple of simple relearn procedures may be needed. If the airbag light comes on, a tool is needed to sync the airbag system. A brake pedal position relearn might also be necessary. These are standard procedures for many modern vehicle repairs and can be performed by most professional repair shops.
