Body Control Module (BCM) - Programming & Setup



BODY CONTROL MODULE PROGRAMMING AND SETUP

BODY CONTROL MODULE (BCM) REPLACEMENT
If the body control module (BCM) is replaced, the following procedures must be performed in the following order:

1. BCM Reprogramming-Refer to Body Control Module (BCM) Programming/RPO Configuration in Computer/Integrating Systems.
2. Theft Learn-Refer to Programming Theft Deterrent System Components in Theft Deterrent. A new BCM will learn the Passlock information automatically but the powertrain control module (PCM) must still learn the theft information from the BCM.

IMPORTANT: This procedure has to be performed only for vehicles equipped with Passlock System.

3. Relearn Restraints ID-Refer to Body Control Module (BCM) Programming/RPO Configuration in Computer/Integrating Systems.

BCM REPROGRAMMING
If the BCM is reprogrammed, the following procedures must be performed:
1. BCM Reprogramming-Refer to Body Control Module (BCM) Programming/RPO Configuration in Computer/Integrating Systems.
2. Theft Learn-Refer to Programming Theft Deterrent System Components in Theft Deterrent.

IMPORTANT: This procedure has to be performed only for vehicles equipped with Passlock System.

3. Relearn Restraints ID-Refer to Body Control Module (BCM) Programming/RPO Configuration in Computer/Integrating Systems.

INFLATABLE RESTRAINT SENSING AND DIAGNOSTIC MODULE (SDM) REPLACEMENT
If the sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) is replaced, the following procedure must be performed:
Relearn Restraints ID-Refer to Body Control Module (BCM) Programming/RPO Configuration in Computer/Integrating Systems.

PASSLOCK SENSOR REPLACEMENT
If the Passlock Sensor is replaced perform the theft learn procedure. Refer to Programming Theft Deterrent System Components in Theft Deterrent.
