Replaced Body Control Module - Any Programming Necessary?
I just replaced my BCM in a C6 Z06. At first glance everything seems to work except for a couple of things. The radio is locked and when attempting to sync new tpms sensors the key fob will not sound the horn when the lock and unlock buttons are depressed. The fob is known by the car when put into the glove box slot. Any suggestions on what additional steps are required when replacing the BCM?
Thanks for any help.

Yes, you have to go to a dealer with a Tech II and have them reprogram it.
I have the same car you do and fubared my BCM. Tried to get a used one but that wouldn't fly as there was something that didnt' work right, can't recall what it was. Had to buy a new BCM and have it programmed at the dealer. The BCMs are VIN locked and there are a number of electrical goodies in the car that check the BCM and the VIN programmed in the BCM to make sure everything is on the up and up.
Once I replaced mine and had it flashed, not a single issue after that.
