Hey every one,
So I submerged my envoy in a puddle fried the bcm. I replaced it with a new one from another envoy. I had to relearn the key doing the 30 second then 11 min thing. After changing everything getting all the water out the truck fired right up.
Now the radio says "LOCKED" does anyone know what to do or if I can just put in a aftermarket radio to get some music going?

Thanks in advance!!

The radio is VIN locked so it doesn't recognize the VIN in this BCM. Three choices, two of which involves the dealer. Have the VIN programmed into the BCM or radio or replace the radio with an adtermarket. You could try hacks seen on YouTube where the chip that locks it is removed but then you supposedly lose the channel memory.
