BCM has packed it in on my 98 VT Calais. I've done my research it seems as long as I have a matching BCM (with the right 3 digit code) and key fob from another VT, I can install it have it linked using a scan tool. My mechanic has quoted me around 4 hungy just for the module but I can purchase a second handy for 90 bucks. I told the mechanic I will source my own part and get them to install it but they're telling me that after the VS model, second hand BCMs cant be programmed for other vehicles. I've read threads on here where guys have bought second hand ones from the wreckers and they were good to go. Why would there be heaps of BCMs for sale on eBay etc if they're not able to be programmed? Not sure what to believe. I've dealt with this mechanic a few times before and they've been excellent so if they're just saying that so they can entice me to buy the part through them at an inflated price I would be surprised.
Any advice would be cool.
Cheers
