'01 Impala Power Locks Quit Working.

The power locks on my '01 Impala quit on me. I checked the fuse, it was ok, replaced it anyway, still no luck. There is juice going to the fuse. When I use the remote, the headlights and interior lights come on but the doors still won't operate. Any ideas?

Re: '01 Impala Power Locks Quit Working.

Welcome to AF.

The power door locks in manual or RKE modes is controlled by the body control module (BCM).

Re: '01 Impala Power Locks Quit Working.

Would the locks no longer working indicate a defective BCM or (hopefully) just a simple reprogramming?

Probably a defective BCM and based on my experiences a BCM reprogramming never fixes the problem. The problem is when a new BCM is installed it will need to be initialized/programmed by a GM dealer.
