Hi all,
just joined this forum after searching some info related to a weird symptom happening to my 2010 cruze 2.0L.
So, after discovering a sequence of malfunctions i took my car to dealership with syptoms like 1.) boot wont open not even from remote 2.) auto light sensor not working 3.) rear brake lights off except the upper brake light 4.) rear red main lights off 5.) traction control switch interior light went off but TC works since I cam see icon on dash panel. 6.) cigarette lighter not working. 7.) windscreen wash not working
Dealership diagnosed and quoted me the price to replace the BCM but it takes 3 wks to arrive. I asked for a discount and faster shipping but still waiting on that.
The weird part is this:
Friend of mine suggested to take a look at fuse box, the interior one. So, cutting the story short, discovered when removing fuse no.3 (named BCM, the 25Amp one) all the 7 malfunctions above starts working fine(i just did not check the cig. lighter). However new problems now evolve, associated with the missing fuse no.3 like right front indicator stopped working and more noticeable other things.
My question is this... could there be a kind of electrical short somewhere (like cig. lighter) and the BCM is fine ? or the BCM is acting weird and needs replacement?
Any opinion matters because i still cant swallow well the fact that it i have a faulty BCM on just 34k Km from new.
Thank you
