The body control module (BCM) is the electrical heart of a vehicle.
A modern vehicle must be more than just a means of transport. It has become a key part of our lives and offers a wide range of convenience and safety functions. BCMs represent the main hardware and software components for these functions.
Body control modules combine and manage comfort and safety functions as well as the power management system. BCMs also provide the diagnostic interface when repairing or servicing the vehicle. Whenever the driver turns on the lights, heats up his seat or uses the windscreen wipers, the BCM acts as the control center. Inside a well-equipped mid-range car, the BCM communicates with about 60 different ECUs. As part of an integrated energy management system, it helps to minimize the vehicle’s overall energy consumption.
BCMs from HELLA thus help to reduce a vehicle’s overall CO2 emissions.
