2009 saturn vue XR short in wiring(i believe)
 

Hello all,
I have had a recent issue with my car. I was driving it down the highway with cruise control and when I turned on my blinker to get in the passing lane it kicked it out of cruise control and flashed the traction control light as well as messing with the stereo. I believe it switched the stereo over to CD but it could have shut it off for about 30 seconds then the stereo continues as nothing happened. It does this when I turn on the blinker either direction. If I flash my brights by pulling the brights stick back to me it does all the same stuff listed above but my traction control light and a couple of others stay on until I slow down and pull off to the side of the road it seems. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Also, there are no codes being thrown

Sounds like a body control module issue to me. Are your cruise and radio controls on the steering wheel? If so they run through the clock spring to the bcm. Your blinker/dimmer switch are below the clock spring but still run to the bcm. If all your exterior bulbs work correctly then I would contact your full service repair facility. Turn signals and brake lights are separate bulbs on newer cars so a burned out bulb should not cancel the cruise control.

Yes cruise and radio controls are on the steering wheel. Sorry for the stupid question. I have never worked with a BCM but is that something that a repair facility has to do or is it a plug and play kind of thing

A full service shop with the proper equipment should be able to program a new bcm. I would discuss this with them, it will require dealer level equipment.

Great thank you I just called. I will keep everyone posted

Be sure to call around. Absurdly high estimates will come from the dealers that want nothing to do with you.
Should cost in the neighborhood of $500 for the BCM module, say $100 for diagnosis, and two hours labor at $120 each so somewhere between $700 and $800.
