BCM Cloning

BCM Cloning: What Is It and Why You Need It

So what exactly is BCM cloning and why is it so important? BCM stands for Body Control Module, and it’s the computer that controls many of the electronic components in your vehicle like locks, windows, steering, brakes and more.
When your BCM starts malfunctioning, it can cause all sorts of problems. Your power locks or windows may stop working, your turn signals could flash erratically, or your vehicle may not even start. Unfortunately, repairing or replacing a BCM can be very expensive at a dealership.
That’s where BCM cloning comes in. BCM cloning essentially involves copying the settings from your malfunctioning BCM to a used replacement BCM that’s compatible with your specific vehicle make, model, and year. This process is much more affordable than buying a brand new BCM and having it programmed.
The technicians at BCM Cloning Service are experts at locating replacement BCMs and cloning your existing BCM data and settings onto them. They can clone settings for:

• Power locks
• Power windows
• Keyless entry remotes
• Alarm systems
• And more

By choosing BCM cloning, you can save hundreds or even thousands of dollars over dealer replacement costs and get your vehicle back on the road fast. BCM Cloning Service uses state-of-the-art cloning equipment and has years of experience to ensure your new BCM is programmed correctly the first time.
With BCM cloning from the professionals at BCM Cloning Service, you can rest easy knowing your vehicle’s computer systems are in capable hands. Their expertise and affordable service have made them the automotive locksmith you can truly trust.

BCM Cloning Service FAQs: Get Answers to All Your Questions

BCM Cloning Service receives many questions from customers about our automotive locksmith services. Here are some of the most frequently asked questions and their answers:

What is BCM cloning?

BCM stands for Body Control Module. BCM cloning is the process of reprogramming a replacement BCM to work with your specific vehicle. We connect to your vehicle’s diagnostic port and upload the vehicle’s original BCM data, then transfer that data to a new replacement BCM so it can function properly in your vehicle.

Why do I need BCM cloning?

If your vehicle’s original BCM is damaged or malfunctioning, it will need to be replaced. However, a new BCM won’t work right away – it needs to be programmed with your vehicle’s specific settings. BCM cloning “teaches” the new module to communicate properly with your vehicle’s other components so everything works as intended.

How long does BCM cloning take?

The BCM cloning process typically takes 1 to 2 hours to complete, depending on your vehicle make and model. We need to access your vehicle’s diagnostic port to upload the data from your original BCM, then install the new BCM and transfer the data to program it for your specific vehicle. The cloning process ensures your replacement BCM is set up properly to maintain all functions in your vehicle.

Does BCM cloning require any dismantling of my vehicle?

No, the BCM cloning process does not require any dismantling or removal of vehicle components. We connect directly to your vehicle’s OBD-II diagnostic port, located under the dash, to access the BCM data. The only requirement is that we have access to your vehicle during the cloning process. No parts need to be removed or taken apart.

Will BCM cloning fix any warning lights on my dash?

Yes, BCM cloning should correct any warning lights on your instrument cluster that are related to a BCM malfunction or replacement. The cloning process teaches the new BCM to properly communicate with your vehicle’s other modules and components, which should clear any warning lights triggered by the BCM issue. However, other unrelated warning lights would still need to be diagnosed and repaired separately.
