Restore Your Vehicle’s Brain and End Electrical Gremlins
Are you battling frustrating and unpredictable electrical issues in your GM truck or SUV? Flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows, a security system that acts on its own, or warning lights that won’t go away are common signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM is the central command center for your vehicle’s body electronics, and when it fails, it can make your reliable workhorse feel untrustworthy. This is the definitive solution to restore order and get your vehicle operating exactly as it should.

Expert Insight: From the Shop Floor
“We had a customer with a 2013 Sierra 2500 work truck that was becoming a real headache. One day the turn signals wouldn’t work, the next the radio would stay on after the key was out. He was losing time and money. A scan showed communication faults pointing to the BCM. Instead of tying up his truck for days at the dealer, we ordered one of these pre-programmed units. It arrived flashed to his VIN, we installed it, performed the quick brake pedal position relearn, and had him back on the road the same afternoon. He got his reliable truck back without the dealership hassle—that’s what a quality, programmed part provides.”
Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly does the Body Control Module do?
The BCM is a computer that acts as the central hub for your vehicle’s body electronics. It controls non-engine related functions like power windows, door locks, interior and exterior lighting, security systems, wipers, and various other comfort and convenience features.
Is this programmed 22846365 BCM truly ‘plug-and-play’?
Yes, for the most part. Because we program it to your VIN, it eliminates the need for dealership-level programming. However, depending on your specific vehicle, you may need to perform simple ‘relearn’ procedures after installation, such as for the brake pedal position sensor or the airbag system (SDM key sync), which can often be done with a high-quality bidirectional scan tool.
How do I provide my VIN for programming?
After you complete your purchase, simply send us a message with your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). We cannot ship your order until we receive the VIN, as this step is crucial to ensuring the module works correctly with your vehicle.
What if my airbag light is on after I install the BCM?
This is a known possibility. If the airbag warning light illuminates, it means the new BCM needs to be synchronized with the airbag system’s computer (SDM). A technician with a professional diagnostic tool will need to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure to resolve this.
Will this module fit my vehicle?
This module fits a wide range of 2012-2014 GM trucks and SUVs, including the Silverado, Sierra, Yukon, Tahoe, Suburban, and Escalade. Please check the detailed fitment list on this page and ensure your original part number is 22846365, 22737275, or 22846364 to guarantee compatibility.
Do I need to return my old BCM?
No. This product comes with no core charge. You can keep your original module without any extra fees or hassle.
