Restore Full Functionality to Your Camaro—The Easy Way
If you’re dealing with baffling electrical issues in your 2014-2015 Camaro—like lights that won’t turn off, power windows with a mind of their own, or a security system that prevents the car from starting—the Body Control Module (BCM) is the likely culprit. As a technician with over two decades of experience, I’ve seen how a failing BCM can turn a high-performance machine into a source of constant frustration. It’s the central nervous system for your car’s comfort and convenience features, and when it fails, chaos ensues. This isn’t just an inconvenience; it can affect vehicle security and safety systems.
Forget expensive dealership visits that involve high labor costs and complex programming procedures. We offer a straightforward, reliable solution: a replacement 2014-2015 Camaro BCM that arrives at your doorstep fully programmed and ready for installation. We use a professional cloning service to transfer the exact data from your original module to this replacement unit. This ensures seamless communication with your car’s other computers, retaining all original functions and key programming without any extra steps. It’s the most effective way to get your Camaro back to perfect working order.
A Technician’s Notebook: The Camaro That Wouldn’t Sleep
A customer brought in a 2015 Camaro with a classic BCM failure story. The interior lights would stay on, draining the battery overnight. Sometimes the radio would turn on by itself, even with the car off. They had already replaced the battery twice. A quick scan showed a slew of communication errors (U-codes) pointing to the BCM. Instead of a costly new module and hours of programming, we used this exact cloning service. The customer mailed us their faulty BCM, we cloned it, and sent the replacement back. They installed it in their driveway in under 30 minutes. The electrical gremlins were gone for good—a simple, permanent fix that saved them hundreds of dollars.
Common Signs of a Failing BCM
If your vehicle is exhibiting any of these symptoms, a faulty BCM is a strong possibility. In my shop, these are the most common complaints we trace back to this module:
- ✔ Erratic or non-functional power windows, door locks, and interior/exterior lights.
- ✔ The security system light stays on, or the car won’t start (anti-theft system activated).
- ✔ Horn honking randomly or not working at all.
- ✔ Windshield wipers behaving unpredictably.
- ✔ Multiple unrelated warning lights on the dashboard.
- ✔ Diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) related to communication, such as U0140, U0155, or other U-series codes.
A Straightforward Guide to Installation
Our cloning service makes the physical swap simple. Here’s how the process works from start to finish:
- Step 1: Place Your Order. After you purchase this 2014-2015 Camaro BCM, we will contact you with detailed instructions and a shipping address. Please ensure your contact information is correct at checkout.
- Step 2: Ship Us Your Original Module. Carefully remove your original BCM. On the 2014-2015 Camaro, it’s typically located on the right-hand (passenger) side of the dash. Package it securely and ship it to the address we provide.
- Step 3: We Handle the Programming. Once we receive your module, our experts will transfer all necessary vehicle-specific data to the replacement unit. This process typically takes 1-2 business days.
- Step 4: Receive & Install. We ship the plug-and-play replacement BCM back to you. Simply install it in the same location you removed the original from, reconnect the electrical connectors, and reconnect your battery. No further programming is needed.
Important Post-Installation Notes
While our goal is a 100% plug-and-play experience, some GM vehicles may require a simple relearn procedure depending on their specific configuration.
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag light is on after installation, a professional scan tool is needed to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure. This syncs the new BCM with the airbag system.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: On some models, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration might be necessary to ensure correct brake light and traction control operation.
Disclaimer: Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician if you are unsure about any step. Specific procedures can vary.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the mail-in programming service work?
After you place your order, we’ll email you instructions for shipping your original BCM to us. Once we receive it, we clone the data to the new module and ship the programmed unit back to you, usually within 24-48 hours.
Do I need to send my keys?
No. Because we are cloning the data from your original BCM, all your existing keys will work automatically with the new module. No key relearn is necessary.
What if my original BCM is completely dead or not communicating?
In most cases, even if the BCM has failed, we can still extract the necessary data for cloning. If for some reason we cannot, we will contact you to discuss options, which may include a full refund.
Is this a guaranteed fix for my car’s electrical problems?
This part resolves issues directly caused by a faulty BCM. While the symptoms listed are very common for BCM failure, we always recommend a proper diagnosis by a qualified mechanic to confirm the BCM is the root cause before ordering.
Is there a core charge?
No, there is no core charge for this part. You can keep your original module after you receive the programmed replacement from us.
