Restore Full Electrical Control to Your GM Truck or SUV
Are strange electrical problems plaguing your 2003-2007 GMC Sierra Denali, Chevy Silverado, or Tahoe? From flickering lights and unresponsive power windows to a security system that has a mind of its own, a failing Body Control Module (BCM) can turn your reliable vehicle into a source of daily frustration. This VIN-programmed BCM is the direct-fit, plug-and-play solution to restore full functionality and get you back on the road with confidence, without an expensive trip to the dealership.
Common Symptoms & Your Solution
If your truck or SUV is experiencing any of the following issues, a faulty BCM is the most likely culprit. This module directly resolves problems such as:
- Intermittent or non-working power windows, door locks, and interior/exterior lights.
- HVAC controls that fail to respond or a blower motor that works sporadically.
- An airbag warning light that stays on, often accompanied by Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) like B1001.
- Security system malfunctions that can lead to a no-start condition.

Expert Insight: Why VIN Programming is a Game-Changer
A generic, non-programmed BCM is just a piece of plastic and silicon. It doesn’t know your truck’s specific options—like its security system, power seat configuration, or lighting package. Our pre-programming service flashes your vehicle’s unique VIN directly onto the 10383536 Body Control Module before it ships. This ensures all systems communicate correctly from the moment you plug it in, saving you from a mandatory, and often expensive, trip to the dealership for calibration. It’s the difference between a 5-minute DIY job and a multi-day service appointment.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to send my old BCM back?
No. There is no core charge for this part. You can keep your old module, which saves you the time and hassle of shipping it back.
Is any special programming required after installation?
For most installations, no further programming is needed. However, if your airbag light remains on after installation, a simple ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure may need to be performed by a technician with a capable scan tool to sync the systems.
Where is the BCM located on my truck?
On most compatible models like the Sierra, Silverado, and Tahoe, the BCM is conveniently located under the steering column on the driver’s side. On Savana and Express vans, it’s typically found behind the center dash.
Will this fix my airbag light with code B1001?
Yes, a faulty BCM is a very common cause of an airbag light and DTC B1001. Replacing it with this programmed 10383536 Body Control Module should resolve the root cause, though the SDM sync procedure mentioned above may be required to clear the light itself.
What tools do I need for installation?
Installation is straightforward and typically requires only basic hand tools, such as a socket set or a screwdriver, to remove the lower dash panel for access. The entire process often takes less than 15 minutes.
How do I know this is the correct part for my vehicle?
