Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Body Control Module do?
The Body Control Module, or BCM, acts as the central computer for your vehicle’s non-engine related electronics. It controls functions like your interior and exterior lights, power windows, door locks, security system, wipers, and climate control systems.
Is this BCM truly plug-and-play?
Yes, this module is delivered pre-programmed to your vehicle’s VIN. In most cases, installation is a simple plug-and-play process. However, if your vehicle has an active airbag light due to the BCM, a special procedure called ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ may need to be performed with a professional scan tool to sync the systems.
How do I know if my BCM is failing?
Common signs include multiple, unrelated electrical issues happening at once. For example, if your power windows, radio, and interior lights all stop working intermittently, the BCM is a primary suspect. Specific diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) pointing to the BCM are also a clear indicator.
Where is the BCM located on my Escalade/Silverado/Tahoe?
On most 2007-2013 GM trucks and SUVs, the BCM is located under the driver’s side of the dashboard, typically near or attached to the steering column support. It’s usually accessible after removing the lower dash panel.
Do I need to return my old BCM?
No, there is no core charge for this part. You can keep your old module, which saves you the time and hassle of packaging and shipping it back.
What if the airbag light stays on after installation?
If the airbag warning light was on before the BCM replacement and remains on after, it’s because the new BCM needs to be electronically ‘introduced’ to the airbag’s Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM). This requires a professional-grade scan tool to perform the ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ function, which will sync the modules and turn off the light.
