I am having numerous electrical problems with my Impala. It started with the turn signals blowing the fuse, Then the brake lights were blowing their fuse. Eventually the turn signal / flasher unit failed. After replacing it, the new one stopped working in a week. The radio display, digital odometer & gear selector display dim intermittently. The tail lights have stopped working and now when I step on the brake I hear a static noise in the radio speakers. The check engine light comes on but there are no fault codes when hooked up to a code reader.

All wiring looks to be intact with no broken or frayed wires. The mechanic & I are at a loss to find the trouble. Hoping it isn't the Body Control Module.

Can anyone give some guidance. It would be appreciated.

it very well may be a bcm problem but need to check all the ground locations for the affected devices also if you can find someone with a good scan tool try to communicate with the bcm and check for any codes then go from there
