Body Control Module Replacement

Removal Procedure

    Images available only to Customers.



  1. Disconnect the battery ground (negative) cable.
  2. Remove the left instrument panel insulator.
  3. Disconnect the BCM electrical connectors (2, 3, 4).
  4. Remove the BCM (1).
After posting all that and looking at the wiring diagram there is not a wire you can disconnect to stop the chime.You can however pull the radio fuse in the passenger side fuse box.That should kill the chime since the chime comes over the radio speakers.
