Are you battling a storm of bizarre electrical issues in your GM vehicle? From flickering lights and malfunctioning power windows to a car that won’t start, a failing Body Control Module (BCM) can turn your driving experience into a nightmare. The BCM is the central command center for your vehicle’s body electronics, and when it goes bad, the symptoms can be confusing and widespread. This listing offers a reliable, straightforward solution: a replacement BCM, part number 13594692, that comes fully programmed with your vehicle’s original data.
This is not just a part; it’s a complete service designed to get you back on the road without the exorbitant costs and hassle of a dealership visit. The process is simple: after your purchase, you send us your original BCM. Our expert technicians will then perform a data transfer, or ‘cloning,’ of all the essential information—including your vehicle’s VIN, security settings, and specific options—onto this replacement module. The result is a true plug-and-play component that is ready for installation the moment you receive it.
We recently had a 2015 GMC Sierra in the shop with a list of strange symptoms. The radio would randomly change stations, the dome light would flicker while driving, and the driver’s side window would only work intermittently. The owner had already replaced the battery and checked every fuse with no luck. After connecting our diagnostic scanner, we saw a flood of communication errors all pointing back to a faulty BCM. A new, unprogrammed module would have required a tow to the dealer for expensive programming. Instead, we used our cloning service. By transferring the data from his failing module to a good replacement, we provided a plug-and-play fix. He installed it in his driveway, and all the electrical gremlins were gone for good, saving him hundreds of dollars and significant downtime.
Is Your BCM Failing? Common Symptoms
- ✔ Power windows, door locks, or mirrors operating erratically or not at all.
- ✔ Interior or exterior lights (headlights, taillights, dome lights) staying on, not turning on, or flickering.
- ✔ The security system acting up, causing false alarms or preventing the car from starting.
- ✔ Instrument cluster gauges behaving erratically or warning lights appearing for no reason.
- ✔ HVAC (climate control) system not responding to commands.
- ✔ Intermittent no-start conditions where the engine cranks but won’t fire up.
- ✔ Communication errors with other modules when checked with a professional scan tool.
Your Solution: A Programmed 2014-2017 Caprice BCM
Choosing our programming service eliminates the guesswork and additional costs associated with vehicle electronics repair. A new BCM from the dealership is just an expensive paperweight until it’s programmed with specialized equipment. Our service bypasses that entire step. We ensure this replacement BCM is a perfect digital twin of your original, preserving all factory settings and functionalities. This module is compatible with a wide range of GM vehicles, including the Chevy SS Caprice, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, Corvette, Impala, GMC Sierra, Yukon, and various Cadillac models like the ATS, CTS, XTS, and Escalade.
Important Post-Installation Notes
While this module is designed to be plug-and-play, certain vehicle systems may require a recalibration or sync procedure after installation. Please be aware of the following:
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag warning light is illuminated after installation, a ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure must be performed with a professional scan tool. This syncs the new BCM with the airbag system.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: On some models, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration may be necessary to ensure proper brake light operation and traction control system functionality.
Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician for vehicle-specific procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is a BCM cloning service?
This service involves transferring the complete software and vehicle-specific data (like VIN, mileage, and security keys) from your original BCM to this replacement unit. This makes the replacement module a perfect electronic match for your car, allowing for a simple plug-and-play installation without needing dealer programming.
Why do I have to send you my original part?
Your original BCM holds the unique data that is essential for your vehicle to function correctly. We need your module to extract this data. Without it, the replacement BCM would not be able to communicate with the other computers in your vehicle.
Is this BCM truly plug-and-play?
Yes, in over 95% of cases, it is. Because we clone your original data, the vehicle recognizes it as the original part. However, as noted, some systems like the airbag (SRS) or brake pedal position sensor may require a simple relearn procedure with a capable scan tool after installation.
How long does the programming service take?
We pride ourselves on a fast turnaround. The programming and testing are typically completed within 1-2 business days of us receiving your original BCM. We will then ship both your original and the newly programmed replacement back to you.
What if my original BCM is water damaged or completely dead?
In many cases, even if the BCM is non-functional, we can still recover the necessary data from the memory chip. Please contact us before ordering if your module has severe physical or water damage so we can assess the likelihood of a successful data recovery.
Does this part fit vehicles other than the Chevy SS Caprice?
Absolutely. This BCM, part number 13594692, fits a wide variety of 2014-2017 GM trucks, SUVs, and cars. Please check the detailed fitment list in the description to confirm compatibility with your specific make and model.
