Have a 2023 dodge challenger. Can anyone help with some information. Can I take the body control module out of the 2023 dodge challanger and put it in the 1969 road runner and control the doors and trunk and ignition start?
Rather not have two key fobs for locks and ignition.
 
Well if you're gutting the Challenger... window motors, position switches/sensors and SO many other things.

That said, is it so hard to turn the key?
 
Perhaps you can figure out how to do it and tell us folks about how you did it. :lowdown:
I am asking because I AM going to do it. Sure wouldn't have asked if I wanted to use a key, sure wouldn't have put a Hellcat and a full Qa1 suspension if I wanted to drive it with a 440. ;-)

Not a chance. The body controler won't function by itself. There is way more to it. The window motors are controlled by CAN bus. I worked at FCA in the prototype electrical lab in Auburn Hills headquarters. Until the entire car was flashed with proper software there was no way to opererate the windows. The BCM also recieves a signal from the door handle to lower the window 1/4" before the door is opened. Trust me making the windows function on a late model Challenger racecar without the factory electrics is not easy. We had to get a one off special built controller to send a CAN signal to control them.
