An Expert’s Take on BCM Replacement
“After 20 years with a wrench in my hand, I’ve seen it all. When the BCM goes on these GM vans and trucks, it can feel like chasing ghosts. One day the windows don’t work, the next the security system locks you out. The real headache used to be the dealership visit for programming.

Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly does a Body Control Module do?
The BCM acts as the central computer for your vehicle’s body electronics. It controls non-engine related functions like your lights, power windows and locks, wipers, security system, and climate control. When it fails, these systems can become unreliable.
Is this BCM difficult to install?
No, installation is straightforward for someone with basic mechanical skills. The BCM is typically located under the steering column or in the center dash area. The process usually takes less than 15 minutes. Simply disconnect the battery, un-plug the old module, plug in the new one, and reconnect the battery.
Will I need to go to the dealership after installation?
No. The primary benefit of our service is that we program the module to your vehicle’s VIN before it ships. This means it’s ready for installation right out of the box, with no need for additional, costly dealership programming.
What if my airbag light is on after installing the new BCM?
In some cases, the new BCM needs to be synced with the airbag system’s computer (SDM). If the airbag light remains on, a procedure called “Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM” will need to be performed with a professional-grade scan tool. This is a simple sync that a qualified mechanic can perform.
Does this part fit other GM vehicles besides the Savana?
Yes, absolutely. This BCM is compatible with a wide range of 2002-2007 GM trucks and SUVs, including the Chevrolet Silverado, Tahoe, Suburban, and Express, as well as the GMC Sierra and Yukon. Please verify your part number or check the full fitment list to ensure compatibility.
Why is there no core charge?
We want to make your repair as simple and hassle-free as possible. By not requiring you to return your old, faulty part (the “core”), we save you the time, expense, and paperwork of shipping it back.
