Body Control Module issues?

[tezza31]

Hey all new member here........as above VZ commo, lock the doors with the keys and the LH indicators stay on when the car is deadlocked. I think its a common prob with this model. Wispers are its the BCM as above , needs replacing and keys re coded. Any one had this prob and solved it. thanks.

I am having exactly that problem and boy am I pissed. my car is supposed to be under a 175 k warranty and they have told me the bcm is not covered and it will cost me $550.
I didnt even know what a bloody bcm was, why the hell wouldnt it be covered?

Thanks all for the info. Dr Bob can you put me in touch with a repairer you speak of. BUT I am in WA, anyone here?
We re pissed off at the BCM problem too! This should be a claimable item from GHM, its clearly a Holden failure.
Thanks again.
PS where is the BCM on a 04 VZ.

You can get one cheaper from wreckers but the local autosparky here told me it was a common fault and 2nd hand one could do same thing,told me 2 have it fixed to b sure.Hope it helps.

Thanks for the reply. A contact that works for GMH can do it for $500 incl new keys, but i think its a but much, maybe still thinking of going to GMH direct $550-$600??
I will call Specialised Auto Elects too, thanks again. :bow:

this is a known failure of the BCM, it can be repaired which would work out cheaper than replacing it & remotes & havng it all linked by a dealer.

FYI, I have sourced the relay inside the BCM, that is usually responsible for the indicators sticking on when the vehicle is locked. Have already supplied some relays to various folk, and it has fixed the problem in their vehicles. PM me for details.

I read somewhere the other day,maybe it was on here somewhere,that you can take the BCM apart,unsolder the faulty blinker relay from the BCM board,and solder in a replacement relay.This has gotta be a better option than buying new a BCM and new key fobs.
EDIT:I found the PDF with the instructions on how to do this, but its too big to upload,so I posted a few pics from it which shows which relay inside the BCM stuffs up.This guys problem was his blinkers were sticking on when the car was locked or something along those lines.

If anyone is in Melbourne and having issues with BCM with the indicator light sticking on a VZ, Conact user 'pezouni' who is a gun at fixing these issues. Thankd for taking a look at my car and fixing the issue for me in less than an hour.
