BODY CONTROL MODULE PROGRAMMING AND SETUP
Each of the following courses of action requires a setup or programming procedure before the body control module (BCM) can be put into normal service.
Body Control Module (BCM) Replacement
If the BCM is replaced, the following procedures must be performed in the subsequent order:
- BCM Reprogramming-Refer to Body Control Module (BCM) Programming/RPO Configuration in Computer/Integrating Systems for replacement, setup, and programming.
- Brake Pedal Position Sensor Calibration-Refer to Brake Pedal Position Sensor Calibration in Lighting Systems.
- Theft Learn-Refer to Programming Theft Deterrent System Components in Theft Deterrent.
Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM) Replacement
If the sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) is replaced, the following procedures must be performed:
- BCM Reprogramming-Refer to Body Control Module (BCM) Programming/RPO Configuration in Computer/Integrating Systems for replacement, setup, and programming.
- Brake Pedal Position Sensor Calibration-Refer to Brake Pedal Position Sensor Calibration in Lighting Systems.
- Theft Learn-Refer to Programming Theft Deterrent System Components in Theft Deterrent.
Brake Apply Sensor (BAS) Replacement
If the brake apply sensor (BAS) is replaced, the following procedures must be performed:
- BCM Reprogramming-Refer to Body Control Module (BCM) Programming/RPO Configuration in Computer/Integrating Systems for replacement, setup, and programming.
- Brake Pedal Position Sensor Calibration-Refer to Brake Pedal Position Sensor Calibration in Lighting Systems.
- Theft Learn-Refer to Programming Theft Deterrent System Components in Theft Deterrent.
Body Control Module (BCM) Reprogramming
If the BCM is reprogrammed, the following procedures must be performed:
- BCM Reprogramming-Refer to Body Control Module (BCM) Programming/RPO Configuration in Computer/Integrating Systems for replacement, setup, and programming.
- Brake Pedal Position Sensor Calibration-Refer to Brake Pedal Position Sensor Calibration in Lighting Systems.
- Theft Learn-Refer to Programming Theft Deterrent System Components in Theft Deterrent.
Theft Deterrent Programming
If the BCM or the powertrain control module (PCM) is replaced the programming for the replaced module must be performed before the programming of the theft deterrent system. Refer to the following:
- BCM Reprogramming-Refer to Body Control Module (BCM) Programming/RPO Configuration in Computer/Integrating Systems for replacement, setup, and programming.
- PCM Reprogramming-Refer to Service Programming System (SPS).

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
