Removal
NOTE:
Removal steps in this procedure may contain installation details.
-
If installing a new BCM , connect a battery charger to the battery to
make sure it is charged to maintain proper battery voltage.
Refer to: Battery Charging (414-01 Battery, Mounting and Cables, General Procedures).
-
NOTE:
If the BCM (body control module) did not respond to
the diagnostic scan tool, As-Built Data may need to be entered as part
of the repair. This step is only necessary if the BCM (body control
module) is being replaced.
Using a diagnostic scan tool, begin the PMI process for the BCM following the on-screen instructions.
Refer to: Module Configuration - System Operation and Component
Description (418-01 Module Configuration, Description and Operation).
-
Remove the retainers and the lower insulation panel.
-
Release the clips and remove the trim panel.
Use the General Equipment: Interior Trim Remover

-
NOTE:
The PMI (programmable module installation)
application in the scan tool will guide you through completing the BCM
(body control module) programming and key programming.
Run the PMI on the BCM .
-
After keys have been programmed as directed by the on screen prompts,
and the BCM programming has fully completed (as indicated by a module
installation complete or successful message), carry out the PATS Module
Initialization using the FDRS Scan Tool PATS Application.
-
As directed by the scan tool, follow the onscreen promts to relearn the TPMS sensors.
Refer to: Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Sensor Location

If equipped with a video rear parking aid (rear mounted only), using a
diagnostic scan tool, carry out the LIN New Module Initialization
function.
-
Using a diagnostic scan tool, carry out the BMS Learned Values Reset.
-
Configure the BCM Programmable Parameters.
Refer to: Module Programming (418-01 Module Configuration, General Procedures).
-
Using a diagnostic scan tool, carry out the BCM self-test (must include
an on-demand self-test) and then repeat the self-test to confirm all
DTC have been cleared.
-
NOTE:
This step only applies to vehicles without a stand-alone PAM (parking assist control module).
Using a diagnostic scan tool, complete the PMI process for the PAM following the on-screen instructions.
Refer to: Module Configuration - System Operation and Component
Description (418-01 Module Configuration, Description and Operation).
Deactivation
NOTE:
After vehicle build, some vehicle modules are set in Transport mode
including the IPC and the BCM . Transport mode reduces battery drain
during longer periods where the vehicle is not used...
