Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Body Control Module (BCM) actually do?
The BCM is a computer that controls and monitors many of your vehicle’s non-engine-related electronic functions. This includes power windows, door locks, the security system, interior and exterior lighting, wipers, and the HVAC system. When it fails, it can cause a wide range of seemingly unrelated electrical problems.
Is this BCM difficult to install?
Installation is typically very straightforward. The BCM is usually located under the driver’s side dashboard, near the steering column. In most cases, it’s a simple process of disconnecting the battery, unplugging the electrical connectors from the old module, removing it, and installing the new one. The entire process often takes less than 15 minutes.
Will this fix my airbag light with code B1001?
A faulty BCM is a very common cause of an airbag light with code B1001. While this programmed BCM will resolve the root cause, some vehicles require an additional ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure after installation. This is a simple sync procedure that can be performed with a capable professional scan tool to clear the light.
Do I need to send my old BCM back?
No. There is no core charge for this part. You can keep or dispose of your old module, saving you the hassle and expense of a return shipment.
How do I ensure this is the correct part for my truck or SUV?
The best way is to match the part number from your original BCM to one of the compatible numbers listed (e.g., 15901388, 25844480, etc.). You can also use the vehicle fitment list provided on this page. When you order, we will ask for your VIN to ensure we program the module perfectly for your specific vehicle configuration.
