BCM Issue:

Both my brake lights went out and I've checked the fuses and looked for the inline fuse that is by the bcm and there isn't one and have also replaced both bulbs. Is the only other thing it could be is the bcm itself? If so what is the cheapest way to replace this thing?


Thanks for the help!

First, get the BCM scanned for error codes. You may find the issue isn't the BCM itself.
If the BCM is determined to be bad, search around on eBay for a used one. You can save a ton.

Is that something that I need to take to the dealership to do?
