A grounding module known as the BCM or body ground control module is a typical source of issues on various vehicles, including the early 2000s Impala and the 2003 Tiburon.
Dash lights and relays that flash or behave erratically are symptoms; when acting up, users frequently hear a clicking sound. Just an idea.
Yes, I believe that my poor ground has harmed the ETACS, which is what I perceive to be a body control module. ETACS, in my opinion, is an acronym for an electronic timing and alarm control system. Currently on my third, I will need to get a new replacement. I’m hoping to have a good solution for my electrical problems in the future now that I’ve located the problematic ground.

programming a keyless remote
These are the instructions that the seller gave me after I decided to purchase one as well. I have not yet tried these. I hope these function for both of us:).
1. Start by looking for the ETACS unit underneath the steering wheel. It has a little switch on it. 2. After finding the switch, make sure the ignition is not on and turn the switch from off to set. 3. Press the door lock button on the keyfob for one second to send and store the codes to the ETACS. 4. Repeat step 4 if your vehicle has two remote controls. 5.At this point, switch the ETACS from set to off. 6. It is now time to program the remotes.
Can you give the ETACS schematics for the Hyundai Elantra?
Could you send me the ETACS control module schematics for a 2006 Hyundai Elantra? We thoroughly disassemble the dash in an attempt to find the part, but we are unsuccessful.
They are independent control modules, not the same. The body control module, or etacs, controls electrical components like power windows, locks, lighting, and radios.
The ignition switch is bolted to the alarm immobilizer control unit, which is only for that system, as seen in the photo below.
Please don’t forget to give the service a rating using the rating page so that I can get credit. Thanks

Just for the record, the ETACS is the electronic component that manages the power windows, alarm, keyless entry, most of the lighting, and most other electrical features. Behind the HVAC controls in the dash is where you’ll find it. The corrosion of the ETACS is NOT the issue. The door wiring harness connector in the A-pillar is the source of the issue. Since many of the wires link to the ETACS, shorts caused by corrosion in the connector may be impairing the way the ETACS functions. However, the door wires becoming corroded are the issue here, not the ETACS.
