Expert Insight: Check Your Grounds First
As a veteran technician, I can’t stress this enough: before installing your new BCM, take five minutes to inspect the main grounding points under the driver’s side dash and on the A-pillar. A loose or corroded ground is a primary cause of BCM failure and can damage a new unit instantly. Ensuring a clean, tight connection is the best insurance against a repeat repair and is a crucial step for a successful installation of your new 2013 Silverado 2500 Body Control Module.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to have this BCM programmed by a dealer?
No. This module comes pre-programmed to your vehicle’s VIN. It is designed for a direct, plug-and-play installation, saving you the time and expense of a dealership visit.
Where is the BCM located on my 2013 Silverado 2500?
The Body Control Module is typically located under the driver’s side dashboard, near the steering column. Installation is straightforward and usually takes just a few minutes.
What if my airbag light stays on after installation?
In some cases, particularly if DTC B1001 was present, the airbag system may need to be re-synced. This requires a professional scan tool to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure, which is a quick process for any qualified technician.
Is there a core charge for my old module?
No, there is no core charge. You can keep your old part, eliminating the hassle of shipping it back.
Will this fix my intermittent HVAC blower and power window issues?
