2004–2009 Buick LaCrosse / Pontiac Grand Prix / U-Body BCM Clone Programming
$325.00
Your BCM Is VIN-Locked
The Body Control Modules on these vehicles are VIN-locked from the factory. Unlike most GM BCMs, the VIN cannot simply be reprogrammed to a replacement module. If your BCM has failed, the replacement must be cloned from your original, copying all VIN data, security keys, and vehicle configuration to a new unit.
That's what we do. Send us your old BCM and your PCM. We clone your BCM data to a tested replacement and disable VATS in your PCM so there's no 30-minute security relearn after install. Depending on the vehicle, a key relearn and/or radio VIN relearn may still be required after installation (see After Installation below).
This listing covers GM BCM part numbers:
15942206 · 19119309 · 15862061 · 25803426 · 15917661 · 10337595 · 10366059 · 10388479 · 15225747 · 15242477 · 15247348 · 15297495 · 15298861 · 25794556
How It Works
Order and ship us your original BCM and your PCM.
We clone your BCM. VIN, security data, and vehicle configuration are copied to a tested replacement module.
We disable VATS in your PCM. This eliminates the 30-minute Passlock relearn after install.
We ship back your new cloned BCM and your PCM. Install both and complete any relearns listed under After Installation if required.
Price: $325.00 (includes BCM clone + VATS disable)
Why Do You Need to Send the PCM Too?
These BCMs use a security handshake with the Powertrain Control Module. Rather than making you sit through the 30-minute Passlock relearn cycle (sometimes multiple times), we disable VATS in the PCM while we have it. That means no 30-minute security wait after install.

What Is a Body Control Module?
The Body Control Module (BCM) controls your vehicle's power windows, door locks, interior and exterior lighting, security system, climate control, and instrument cluster communication. When a BCM fails, symptoms include erratic lights, locks, and windows, no-start conditions, security light illumination, and loss of communication with other modules.
On these vehicles the BCM is VIN-locked, so a used replacement from another vehicle will not work without cloning. The VIN, security seed, and option configuration are all tied to your specific module. A standard reprogram will not overwrite this data. Cloning is the only path to a working replacement.
After Installation
Because we clone the BCM and disable VATS in the PCM, the post-install process is significantly simpler than a standard BCM replacement. The following may still be required depending on your vehicle:
Key Relearn: A key relearn may be required for the vehicle to recognize your keys and/or remote key fobs after the new BCM is installed.
Radio VIN Relearn: If the radio displays "LOCKED," shows a theft/VIN message, or does not operate after install, a radio VIN relearn is required. This requires a Tech2 or compatible J2534 scan tool.
Airbag Light / DTC B1001 (Option Configuration Error): An SDM Primary Key Setup procedure may be required to sync the new BCM with the airbag module. This requires a Tech2 or compatible J2534 scan tool.
Brake Pedal Position (BPP) Sensor Calibration: A BPP learn procedure may be required to restore proper brake light operation and cruise control functionality.
No Passlock Relearn Required: Because VATS is disabled in the PCM, there is no 30-minute security relearn.
We can walk you through any of these procedures if needed.
Why Use Our BCM Cloning Service?
Most shops, and even many dealerships, will tell you a VIN-locked BCM can't be replaced without buying a brand new module from GM and paying for a full dealer programming session. That's not true. We specialize in GM BCM cloning and have the tools to copy your VIN-locked data to a tested replacement. No dealer markup, no new-module-only pricing, no unnecessary hassle.
If you have questions about your specific vehicle or part number, contact us before ordering and we'll confirm compatibility.
