I have a 2017 rt challenger, recently been experiencing the key fob not detecting. I had new key programmed but that still did not solve the issue. My passive entry does not work and my trunk keeps popping open.
Where is the bcm located on my car ?
Do I need the bcm reprogrammed before installing?

Important Side note if you want to take it out dont do it till you dis connect the batery ground cable amd wait 15 mins to drain all residual power or you can damage things badly if you try unplugging it while power is present.. hope this helps
