Expert Insight: Get Your Work Van Back on the Road, Fast.
We know that for Savana and Express van owners, downtime isn’t just an inconvenienceโit’s lost income. We had a customer, a local contractor, whose 3500 work van was plagued with electrical issues. The dome lights wouldn’t turn off, draining the battery, and the power locks were unreliable. The dealership quoted him a massive bill and a two-day wait for programming. Instead, he ordered this VIN Programmed GM Body Control Module. It arrived the next day, he installed it in under 10 minutes in his own shop, and the van was back in service immediately. That’s the difference a pre-programmed part makes: a quick, effective repair that keeps your business moving.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Body Control Module (BCM) do?
The BCM acts as the central computer for your vehicle’s body electronics. It manages non-engine related functions like your lights, power windows and locks, wipers, security system, and climate controls, ensuring they all work together correctly.
Is this BCM difficult to install?
Installation is very straightforward for most DIYers and professionals. The BCM is typically located under the steering column or center dash. The process involves disconnecting the battery, unplugging the electrical connectors from the old module, removing it, and installing the new one. The entire job can often be completed in under 15 minutes.
Why is VIN programming so important?
VIN programming loads your vehicle’s specific software and settings onto the BCM. Without it, the module won’t recognize your vehicle’s options (like power seats or specific lighting) and will not function correctly. Our pre-programming service makes this a true plug-and-play part, saving you a mandatory and costly trip to the dealer.
Will this fix my airbag light?
This module often resolves BCM-related airbag codes. However, in some cases, an airbag light may remain on after installation. This typically requires a simple “Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM” procedure, which can be performed with a professional scan tool to sync the airbag system with the new BCM.
Do I need to send my old part back?
No. This product requires no core charge. You can keep or dispose of your original module without any hassle or extra fees.
How do I know if this BCM fits my vehicle?
Please refer to the detailed compatibility list on this page. You can also match the part numbers listed in our description (e.g., 15137393, 15116066) to the number on your original BCM to ensure a perfect fit for your truck, van, or SUV.
