Body Control Module (BCM) Programming/RPO Configuration: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Pontiac Grand Am and 2004 Oldsmobile Alero. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. The body control module (BCM) must be set up with the proper regular production option (RPO) configurations. The BCM stores the information regarding the vehicle options and if the BCM is not properly configured with the correct RPO codes, the BCM will not control all of the features properly. Ensure that the following conditions exist in order to prepare for BCM programming:
    • The battery is fully charged.
    • The ignition switch is in the ON position.
    • All accessories are turned OFF.
    • The data link connector (DLC) is accessible.
    • All modules and devices are connected.
  2. To setup a new BCM, access the SPECIAL FUNCTIONS menu on the scan tool. Select NEW BCM SETUP and follow the instructions on the scan tool.
  3. If the BCM fails to accept the setup options, perform the following steps:
    • Inspect all BCM connections.
    • Verify that the scan tool has the latest software version.
