Is Your GM Truck or SUV Plagued by Bizarre Electrical Issues?
If you’re dealing with flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows, strange warning messages on your dash, or even a vehicle that refuses to start, the culprit is often a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM acts as the central nervous system for your vehicle’s body electronics, coordinating everything from your interior lights and keyless entry to the security system. When it fails, it can create a cascade of frustrating and seemingly unrelated problems. A trip to the dealership often results in a hefty bill for a new module and expensive programming fees. We offer a smarter, more affordable solution.
The Plug-and-Play Solution: A Pre-Programmed 2015 Yukon BCM
This is not just a replacement part; it’s a complete, ready-to-install solution. We provide a quality replacement BCM that has been professionally programmed with the data from your vehicle’s original module. This cloning service transfers all the essential information—including your vehicle’s VIN, mileage, key fob data, and specific options—to the new unit. The result is a true plug-and-play module that restores full functionality without requiring any additional programming or trips to the dealer.
From the Diagnostic Bay
We had a 2015 Sierra 1500 come in that was driving the owner crazy. The battery would die overnight, but both the battery and alternator tested perfectly. He had already spent hundreds trying to chase down a parasitic draw. After connecting our diagnostic tool, we saw multiple communication errors pointing towards the BCM. The failing module wasn’t allowing other systems to properly go to sleep when the truck was off, causing a slow, persistent drain. A cloned BCM from our stock solved the issue in under an hour of shop time, saving the customer from further guesswork and unnecessary parts replacement.
Common Symptoms of a Failing BCM
- ✔ Intermittent or non-working power windows, door locks, and mirrors.
- ✔ Interior or exterior lights behaving erratically (staying on, not turning on, or flickering).
- ✔ The security or anti-theft system light is on, or the system malfunctions.
- ✔ Key fobs stop working or work unreliably.
- ✔ False warnings on the instrument cluster (e.g., ‘Service 4WD’ or ‘Service StabiliTrak’).
- ✔ Wipers or radio turning on by themselves.
- ✔ A no-crank or no-start condition where the engine doesn’t even try to turn over.

Important Post-Installation Information
While our goal is a 100% plug-and-play experience, some modern GM vehicles have highly integrated safety systems. Please be aware of the following potential procedures:
- Airbag System Sync: In some cases, the airbag warning light may illuminate after installation. This is because the new BCM needs to be synced with the airbag system’s SDM (Sensing and Diagnostic Module). A ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure must be performed with a professional-grade scan tool to resolve this.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: A brake pedal position sensor recalibration might be necessary to ensure proper brake light operation and to clear any related trouble codes. This also requires a compatible diagnostic tool.
Disclaimer: Specific procedures can vary by vehicle. Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician for guidance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly does the Body Control Module do?
The BCM is a computer that manages and controls your vehicle’s body electronics. This includes power windows, locks, lights, wipers, security system, and communication between various non-engine related modules.
Why is this cloning service better than buying a used BCM?
A standard used BCM from a salvage yard is programmed to a different vehicle. It will not have your car’s specific VIN, security information, or options. It will not work correctly without being reprogrammed by a dealer, which is costly. Our service clones your exact data, making the replacement plug-and-play.
How long does the programming service take?
Once we receive your original BCM, the data transfer and testing process typically takes 1-2 business days. We then ship the programmed replacement back to you.
Do I need to do any programming myself?
No, the main programming is completely handled by us. The module will arrive ready to install. In some vehicles, minor relearn procedures for systems like the airbag or brake pedal sensor may be required, which need a professional scan tool.
Where is the BCM located on my 2015 Yukon XL?
On most GM trucks and SUVs from this era, including the Yukon, the BCM is located under the steering column, on the driver’s side of the dashboard. It’s typically secured with a few bolts or clips and has several large electrical connectors.
