Hello, my rear brake light on the passenger side is not working. Two separate mechanics confirmed it is not the bulb and rather and electrical issue. A Nissan dealer traced the issue back to BCM and recommended a replacement. Also, it is worth noting that the car has a Start-X remote start kit installed. I am searching for step-by-step instructions with images or a video tutorial on how to replace the BCM. Thank you

Sure, the BCM is up under the dash on the driver side, here is the location of the BCM and how to change it out, you can get a preprogrammed unit by searching Google or Ebay so no programming will be required. Have your VIN number ready. Check out the images (below). Let us know if you need anything else.
