Expert Insight: The Contractor’s Lifeline
We recently worked with a plumbing contractor whose 2006 Silverado was his mobile office. Intermittently, the truck wouldn’t start due to a security system fault, and the interior lights would stay on, draining the battery. He was losing time and money on service calls. The dealership quoted him over a thousand dollars for a new BCM and the required programming. We sent him this exact Programmed GM BCM 15116065 flashed to his VIN. He installed it himself in under an hour and was back on the road the next day, his truck running as reliably as ever. This isn’t just a part; it’s a solution that keeps your business moving.
Installation & Post-Install Notes
Installation is typically straightforward, with the BCM located under the steering column on most trucks or in the center dash area on vans. While our programming handles the most complex part of the job, some vehicles may require a simple relearn procedure after installation for certain systems to sync correctly. This can include:
- Airbag System Sync: If the airbag light is on after installation, a “Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM” procedure may be needed with a pro-level scan tool.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: In some cases, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration may be necessary for proper brake light and traction control function.
This Programmed GM BCM 15116065 is the most efficient way to solve complex electrical issues and restore the dependable function your GM vehicle is known for.
Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly does a BCM do?
The Body Control Module (BCM) acts as the central computer 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 the instrument cluster.
Why is providing my VIN so important?
Your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) allows us to program the BCM with the specific software and settings for your vehicle’s exact options and configuration. This step is crucial for ensuring the module works correctly right out of the box, making it a true plug-and-play solution.
Is this a difficult part to install myself?
For someone with basic mechanical skills, the physical installation is typically not difficult. The BCM is usually accessible under the dashboard. The main challenge with BCM replacement is the programming, which we take care of for you before shipping the part.
Will this fix my ‘Service Theft System’ message?
Yes, a faulty BCM is one of the most common causes of erroneous security system messages and no-start conditions related to the anti-theft system. This programmed module is designed to resolve those communication issues.
What tools are needed for the post-installation procedures?
The potential relearn procedures, like the airbag sync or brake pedal position relearn, typically require a professional-grade bidirectional diagnostic scan tool. Many local repair shops can perform these quick procedures for you if they are needed.
