bigs04 Posted January 24, 2005 Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 here's the question. i bought the factory fog lamp kit for my single cab ls 2004 silverado and i plan on installing them this weekend and i heard from the dealership that once i complete the install the truck needs to be brought back in for a reset on the bcm. does anyone here know if i can do this at home or is this a way for gm to make a quick buck.

zippy Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 the dealer has to do it. it's an actual reprogram of the bcm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigs04 Posted January 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 zippy if you have had it done do you know how much this would cost. i have to get it done anyways but just for good measure. do you know the damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 when i was a tech i used to do this myself. i believe it'll run you around 45.00 or so unless you can slip out for cash to the mechanic. depends on the dealer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cokedrvrbjw Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 go to another dealer and tell them that they came on the truck when you bought it but youve never used them, and they dont work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IdriveGTP Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 I had the same thing done on my 02 Z71. I bought the kit from my dealer, and they charged me $15.00 for the reprogram! The only problem that I had was I did not read that far into the instructions, and noone told me at the dealership. I got done installing everything, and then found out! Just my luck I guess.....
