Restore Your Vehicle’s Electrical System with Confidence
Are you battling frustrating electrical gremlins in your vehicle? Flickering lights, malfunctioning power windows and locks, a security system that acts up, or even a no-start condition can all point to a failing Body Control Module (BCM). These issues can disrupt your daily routine and create a sense of uncertainty every time you get behind the wheel. This isn’t just an inconvenience; it’s a breakdown in your vehicle’s central nervous system. Stop chasing symptoms and replace the core component with a reliable, pre-programmed solution.

Expert Insight: The Technician’s Edge
As a technician, one of the most challenging jobs is diagnosing intermittent electrical faults. A BCM can fail slowly, causing phantom issues that disappear when the car is at the shop. Swapping modules used to mean a mandatory trip to the dealer for programming. A pre-programmed module like this is a game-changer. It allows professional shops and skilled DIYers to complete the entire job in their own bay, turning a multi-day, multi-step repair into a single, efficient process. It’s the smartest way to ensure a correct and complete repair the first time.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a BCM and what does it do?
The Body Control Module (BCM) is a computer in your vehicle that controls and monitors a wide variety of electronic accessories not related to the engine. This includes power windows, locks, seats, mirrors, interior and exterior lighting, the security system, and more. It acts as a central hub for these functions.
Is this BCM truly “plug and play”?
Yes, for most vehicles. Because we program the module to your specific VIN before shipping, it will integrate with your vehicle’s existing systems upon installation. However, as noted in our instructions, some vehicles may require a simple relearn procedure for the brake pedal position sensor or the airbag system (SDM), which can be done with a capable pro-level scan tool.
How do I provide my Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)?
After you complete your purchase, simply send us a message with your 17-digit VIN. We cannot program and ship your module without it. Please double-check the VIN for accuracy to ensure proper programming.
What if my original part number isn’t on the list?
Our list of compatible part numbers is extensive but may not be exhaustive. If your part number isn’t listed, please contact us with your VIN and original part number. We can verify compatibility to ensure you receive the correct Programmed GM Body Control Module 20864767 for your application.
What procedures might be needed after installation?
In some cases, two additional steps may be necessary. If the airbag light is on, a “Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM” procedure is required. Additionally, a “Brake Pedal Position Sensor Relearn” may be needed for proper brake light and traction control function. These are standard procedures that can be performed by any qualified technician with a professional diagnostic tool.
What happens if I have an issue with the part?
Your purchase is protected. This unit is backed by our one-year replacement warranty. If you encounter any issues with the module itself within the warranty period, please contact us for assistance and we will guide you through the replacement process.
