Hello again ... todays problem is I'm trying to locate the BCM to hook up a remote start .... it says it's located on the drivers side rear cab wall ... and I'm not having any luck finding it ... I have a 2006 FX4 ... also if it's behind the back of the rear seat how do you get the seat back off ... Thanks in advance

Do you mean PCM??? If so its on the passenger side firewall.

Explain what a "BCM" is, as I have not heard of one on our 04 to 08 F150's. I know of nothing that's on the drivers side rear cabin wall.....

Body Control Module .... most vechiles these days have them .... I know it's behind the seat back of the rear seat but for the life of me I can't figure out how to remove the rear seat back ... help

spunky06

did some research and found out how to remove the seat back ... Thanks

I helped my buddy remove the back seat of his 06 f150 and there's nothing back there..............I'm confused.

BCM is General Motors, Ford has a GEM module. Unfortunatly I don't have access to a repair data base at the moment to help you find it.

I'll have to look for the GEM in my Factory repair manual. I have a standard cab and have not run accross this GEM box...

I know I am bringing back a dead thread here but I came across this while planning out my security/remote start project which means others might stumble onto this and get confused.

I just wanted to say this information is incorrect, at least for our f150s, the BCM does exist in our ford trucks. I am looking at the wiring for it in my service manual right not. It is located on the left b pillar in regular cabs and on the left back wall in the supercab/crewcabs.

just didn't want potential searchers to get confused.

I was also confused on this as I have never heard of it, until a dealership said that I had a short in it somewhere. The claim is that the BCM is the issue causing my truck to "crank or turn over" once the key is inserted and turned to ACC.
