End the Frustrating Electrical Problems in Your GM Vehicle
Are you dealing with bizarre and unpredictable issues in your Chevy Cruze, Equinox, or GMC Terrain? Flickering interior lights, power windows that have a mind of their own, a security light that won’t turn off, or worse, a car that refuses to start? These are classic signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). A faulty BCM can turn your reliable daily driver into a source of constant stress. Instead of facing an expensive bill and programming headache at the dealership, we offer a direct, reliable, and affordable solution.
Common Symptoms & Your Solution
If you’re experiencing any of the following, a failing BCM is the likely culprit:
- Power windows, door locks, or mirrors operating erratically or not at all.
- Interior or exterior lights staying on, flickering, or not working correctly.
- The anti-theft or security system light is illuminated, preventing the car from starting.
- Intermittent no-start or no-crank conditions.
- False warnings on the instrument cluster (e.g., “Service Airbag,” “Service Stabilitrak”).
This is a complete BCM programming service. We take the vital data from your original, faulty BCM and transfer it directly onto this fully tested replacement unit. This cloning process ensures that the replacement module is a perfect electronic match for your vehicle, making installation straightforward. This is the most effective way to get a Programmed 2013 Chevy Cruze BCM without the need for expensive dealer-specific tools.

Expert Insight: Why Cloning is the Smart Choice
Many people consider buying a used BCM from a junkyard to save money, but this often leads to more problems. A used BCM is locked to the donor car’s VIN and security system. It simply will not work in your vehicle without being reprogrammed by a dealer, which can be expensive and sometimes not even possible. Our cloning service for your Programmed 2013 Chevy Cruze BCM bypasses this entire problem. We make the replacement module an exact digital twin of your original, preserving all the keys, security information, and vehicle-specific settings. It’s the most reliable and efficient path to a permanent fix.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does this programming service work?
It’s simple. After you place your order, you will ship your original BCM to our facility. We will then clone all the necessary data (including VIN, key information, and vehicle options) to this replacement BCM. We then ship the programmed module back to you, ready for installation.
Do I need to program this BCM after I receive it?
No. The module arrives pre-programmed and ready to be installed. In some rare cases, minor relearn procedures like for the Brake Pedal Position sensor or Airbag system sync may be needed, which can be done with a standard professional scan tool.
What part numbers does this BCM replace?
This module and service are compatible with part numbers 13577850, 13505326, 13500384, 13574844, 13504004, 13504494, and 13578420. Please check your original module to confirm a match.
What if my airbag light is on after installation?
If the airbag light appears, it means the BCM and the airbag module (SDM) need to be electronically re-synced. This is a simple procedure called ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ that can be performed by any qualified shop with a professional-grade diagnostic tool.
Is this a difficult part to replace myself?
For someone with basic mechanical skills, it’s very manageable. The BCM is typically located in the driver’s side or passenger’s side kick panel area. The most important step is to disconnect the vehicle’s battery before starting. Our service for a Programmed 2013 Chevy Cruze BCM handles the difficult electronic work for you.
How long does the entire process take?
We typically perform the cloning service and ship the replacement module back out within 1-2 business days of receiving your original BCM. Total time will depend on shipping speeds to and from our facility.
