Default 2002 Monte SS EBCM/EBTCM location

Anyone know where this damn thing is? It's the root of my 3 light cause. I think it might be faulty.

BCM is located under the kickpanel below the steering column.

You should see a nice black box once you remove it.

That looks about right. It might be mounted horizontally, I can't remember.

Our PCM controls the transmission, we don't have a separate TCM.

The DRL module is located under the fuses in the panel on the driver's side (I believe)

man, it's so hard to help someone when my car is undercover 3 hours away

The ebtcm is the traction control module it's the same module as the brake control there's no communication between that module and the PM through the data link.

It requires more investigating but heres a link to the diagrams.
| Repair Guides | Data Link Communications (2002) | Data Link Connector (dlc) Schematics | AutoZone.com
You have to make an acount to navigate them more but its VERY helpful.


also this buddy

Locate the EBCM/EBTCM under the instrument panel, to the left of the steering column.
Release the EBCM/EBTCM from its bracket using the pressure tabs.
Detach the electrical harness and remove the EBCM/EBTCM from the vehicle.
Installation is the reverse of the removal process. Verify that all electrical connections are secure.


hope it helps
Edit: I see you have seen that diagram before. But my bet is the splice pack. But check the grounds too. should be pretty obvious.

Default Bcm

I have a 2000 MC SS and my dash no longer lights up brightly, I can't read my radio display (only when the key is on ACC only), the overhead display is dim, or sometime it does not turn on. If it does it takes a while and my night time lights stay on while driving in the day. I was told by the dealer that I needed a new BCM. I bought a BCM and when I had my personal mechanic change it out nothing happened. Also my HVAC doesn't work right away. It works when I see the overhead display flashses on. What else do I need to do fix this? Lastly I saw the "Service Traction System" pop up. It did that back in 2008 and I had the wire harness' changed. Does anyone think I should change them again and this time change the EBTCM? Thanks for your feedback in advance.
