2 Answers
The body control module of the Besturn B50 is located under the hood. Here are the specific details about the Besturn B50: 1. Safety features: The Besturn B50 is equipped with a cornering assist lighting system, which automatically controls the cornering lights (front fog lights) based on driving conditions and vehicle status to enhance driving safety and comfort. Additionally, it includes safety features such as a reminder for the front passenger seatbelt, anti-whiplash seats, hidden airbags throughout the vehicle, central locking, and headlight level adjustment. 2. Powertrain: It is powered by a 1.8L ET3 series high-performance all-aluminum engine, paired with an Aisin F21 series six-speed automatic transmission with 13 specially tuned automatic modes. The 1.6L model is equipped with a 1.6L engine.
I've been driving the Besturn B50 for several years. The body control module is usually hidden right in front of the driver's footwell area, beneath the carpet near the right foot. Lifting the mat reveals a square box connected to a bunch of wires. It controls functions like headlights, turn signals, power windows, and door locks. Its low placement is designed to protect against rainwater and collision damage. When inspecting, always disconnect the battery first to prevent short circuits and avoid electric shock. Last time my headlights weren't working, I found a loose connector—tightening it fixed the issue. The module's position might vary slightly by model year, but it's generally fixed in this location for the B50. When DIY repairs, wear gloves and carefully position yourself underneath to avoid damaging the wiring harness. Regularly clean dust buildup, as accumulated dirt can cause poor contact and malfunctions.
