I am suspecting i have a bad BCM, but not 100% sure. I was driving the other day and out of nowhere the dash gauges, center gauges and radio shut down. The engine was still running so i drove home. When i shut the ign off some indicators on the IC where still on, i had to disconnect the battery to shut them off. I scanned the BCM and it seemed to have lost connection with everything. See pics!
Any help on this would be great!

Any chance you have an aftermarket radio? I had a comm error awhile back. Car would fire and immediately shut off. Ran scanners and cleared tons of codes. Turned out the radio controller went south on the aftermarket Metro kit. Took that out of the loop and car ran fine. Just my $.02.

I do have an aftermarket radio with a Scosche kit. I'll remove it and see if it changes.
