Restore Your Vehicle’s Electrical System with a Perfectly Matched BCM
Are you battling bizarre electrical gremlins in your GM vehicle? Flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows or locks, a security light that won’t turn off, or even a no-start condition? These are classic signs of a failing Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM acts as the central hub for your vehicle’s body electronics, and when it goes bad, it can cause a cascade of frustrating and confusing problems. Dealerships will often quote you a fortune for a new module plus mandatory programming fees. Our mail-in cloning service for this Programmed BCM 13587704 is the smart, cost-effective, and reliable solution.
We take the guesswork and high costs out of the equation. By transferring the data directly from your original BCM to this quality replacement unit, we create a true plug-and-play module. It arrives at your door ready to be installed, already containing your vehicle’s specific VIN, mileage, and optional equipment programming. This process ensures 100% compatibility and functionality, getting you back on the road without the hassle and expense of a dealership visit.
A Technician’s Notebook
I recently had a 2015 Sierra 1500 in the bay that was driving the owner crazy. The dash lights would flicker randomly, the radio would cut out, and he was getting a persistent ‘Service StabiliTrak’ message. His scan tool showed a U0140 code—Lost Communication With Body Control Module. Instead of sending him to the dealer for a new BCM and a hefty programming bill, we used this exact cloning service. We had him mail in his original module, performed the data transfer, and sent the new unit back. He installed it in under 30 minutes in his own driveway. The truck fired right up, all codes were gone, and every electronic feature worked perfectly. He saved hundreds of dollars and a ton of time.
Is Your Vehicle Showing These Symptoms?

Important Notes on Post-Installation Procedures
While our Programmed BCM 13587704 is designed to be plug-and-play, some modern vehicle systems may require a ‘handshake’ after a new module is introduced. Depending on your specific model, you may encounter the following:
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag (SRS) warning light is illuminated after installation, a ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure is needed. This requires a professional-grade scan tool to sync the modules and clear the light.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: In some cases, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration might be necessary to ensure correct brake light operation and to satisfy the traction control system.
Please Note: These procedures are not always required but are possibilities. We always recommend consulting a factory service manual or a qualified technician if you are unsure. There is no core charge for this service; you can keep your old module.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the mail-in cloning service work?
It’s simple! After you purchase, we provide instructions to mail your original BCM to us. We extract the unique data and transfer it to the replacement module. We then ship the plug-and-play replacement back to you.
Why is this better than buying a used BCM from a junkyard?
A used BCM is programmed to a different vehicle’s VIN and options. It will not work correctly in your car without being reprogrammed by a dealer, which defeats the purpose. Our cloning service ensures a perfect match from the start.
Is this truly plug-and-play?
Yes, in over 95% of cases. Because we clone your original data, the vehicle recognizes the module as its own. In rare instances, certain systems like the airbag or brake sensor may require a simple relearn procedure with a scan tool, as detailed above.
Do I need to send my keys or ignition switch?
No. All the necessary security and operational data is stored within the BCM itself. We only need your original BCM to perform the service.
How long does the entire process take?
We typically program and ship your replacement module the same or next business day after we receive your original. The total time depends on shipping transit times to and from our facility.
