Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Body Control Module do?
The BCM acts as the central computer for your vehicle’s body electronics. It manages non-engine related functions like your interior and exterior lights, power windows and locks, security system, wipers, and HVAC climate controls.
Is this BCM difficult to install?
Installation is typically straightforward, taking under 5 minutes for most DIYers. The module is located under the driver’s side dash or steering column. Since it comes pre-programmed to your VIN, no special computer relearns are needed for basic functions.
Why is VIN programming so important?
VIN programming loads your truck’s specific software and configurations onto the BCM. This ensures all the features and options your vehicle came with from the factory work correctly right after installation, avoiding conflicts and the need for a trip to the dealership.
Will this fix my airbag light?
This module can resolve BCM-related airbag codes like B1001. However, if the airbag light remains on after installation, a special procedure called ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ may need to be performed with a professional scan tool to sync the new BCM with the airbag system.
Do I need to return my old BCM?
No. There is no core charge for this part. You can keep or dispose of your old module without any extra fees or hassle.
How do I know this is the right part for my truck?
This BCM is compatible with a wide range of 2007-2013 GM trucks and SUVs. You can verify the fit by matching one of the interchangeable part numbers listed in the description to your old unit, or by using our vehicle lookup tool.
