Is Your GM Vehicle Experiencing Strange Electrical Issues?
If your car’s lights are flickering, power windows and locks are acting erratically, or the security system is malfunctioning, you’re likely dealing with 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 cause a wide range of frustrating and seemingly unrelated problems. This isn’t just an inconvenience; it can affect vehicle security and safety. Don’t let a faulty module keep you guessing. Restore full functionality and peace of mind with our reliable, pre-programmed replacement.
Common Symptoms of a Failing GM BCM
- ✔ Erratic or non-functional interior and exterior lights.
- ✔ Power windows, locks, or mirrors not working correctly.
- ✔ Vehicle security system engaging randomly or not at all.
- ✔ Instrument cluster warning lights (like the airbag light) illuminating without cause.
- ✔ Key fob failing to operate locks or remote start.
- ✔ Wipers or radio behaving unpredictably.
- ✔ Battery drain when the vehicle is turned off.
Why Choose Our Programmed GM Body Control Module?
Getting back on the road shouldn’t be complicated. Dealerships often require you to buy a new module, pay for towing, and then charge significant labor fees for programming. We simplify the process. This module is a direct-fit replacement for a wide variety of GM vehicles. We take your vehicle’s VIN, flash the module with the latest GM software specific to your car, and ship it directly to you. This means no expensive programming tools or trips to the dealer are required for the initial setup. It’s the most efficient way to get your vehicle’s electronics working like new again.
Post-Installation Requirements
While our BCM arrives programmed for your vehicle, some systems may require a simple relearn procedure after installation to sync properly. This is standard for many modern vehicle repairs.
- Airbag System Sync: If your airbag warning light is on after installation, a professional scan tool is needed to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure. This syncs the new BCM with the airbag system.
- Brake Pedal Position Relearn: On some models, a brake pedal position sensor recalibration may be needed to ensure correct brake light and traction control operation.
Always consult a factory service manual or a qualified technician for guidance. Specific procedures can vary by vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do you need my VIN?
Your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) allows us to program the BCM with the exact software and settings for your vehicle’s specific options. This ensures compatibility and proper function right out of the box, eliminating the need for expensive dealer programming.
Is this part difficult to install?
The physical installation is typically straightforward, involving the removal of a few dash panels and disconnecting electrical connectors. It’s a manageable job for a DIYer with basic tools. However, some post-installation sync procedures, like for the airbag system, may require a professional scan tool.
Will this fix my specific electrical problem?
This module will correct issues directly caused by a faulty BCM. If you are experiencing several of the symptoms listed, such as erratic lights, lock, and window behavior, it is highly likely that the BCM is the root cause.
What does a GM Body Control Module do?
The BCM acts as the brain for your car’s body electronics. It manages functions not related to the engine, such as power windows, power locks, the security system, interior and exterior lighting, and the instrument cluster.
Is there a core charge for my old part?
No, there is no core charge for this part. You can keep your original module without needing to send it back to us.
