Your Nissan's Body Control Module, often referred to as the body computer (BCM), is vital to the daily auxiliary operations of your Nissan. But it's important to note that the Body Control Module doesn't supervise or control your car's engine or transmission.

Instead, your BCM gives you the ability to adjust the A/C in your cabin, unlock and lock your car, power up your lights, engage and disengage the anti-theft system, and more. Long story short, when this component is no longer working correctly, the loss of these seemingly insignificant, everyday functions can become a major issue.

This component can stop functioning for a number of reasons, such as excessive heat exposure, shock from major car accidents, circuit problems, intense shaking and vibrations within your car, and even mechanical wear.

Once a Body Control Module becomes faulty, it will likely cause some systems in your vehicle to stop working properly. Various dashboard lights may light up and continue to remain illuminated, which may cause a dead car battery. Your vehicle's anti-theft system could become inconsistent and stop doing its job correctly. The parts your BCM supervises and controls may stop functioning entirely, which may lead to difficulty starting your Nissan. If you begin to notice the effects of a faulty Body Control Module, control module, have a new one installed immediately.

Now that you're aware of how beneficial the BCM can be, is it a good idea to service a bad or faulty one yourself? Because the Body Control Module maintains so many auxiliary functions within the body of your Nissan, we recommend leaving this replacement to the professionals. Purchase a brand-new OEM Body Control Module at Nissan Parts and then, find your closest authorized Nissan service center location to ensure that it is replaced properly.

To get the right fit for your Nissan get authentic OEM components from Nissan Parts for a Body Control Module that is sure to fit your ride seamlessly.
