First Thank you so much. I am waiting for a friend to look up where the BCM is, if you don't mind me asking and so there would be a record of it here, Where is the BCM? I want to pull the plug just to make sure I don't have a chafe wire shorting ground.

Another question, has anyone had any experiences with the "knock off" BCM's? Or should I stay with AC Delco? Local part's stores are about $250 for AC Delco and Amazon has them for $160. I found some knock offs for $80. I can get the new one programmed (if that is what is bad) pretty cheap (like may just the cost of a steak dinner) if I expose it before I bring the car in. But I don't want to impose on my friend too much. I probably will go with the AC Delco.

Also, In the more information than anyone may care category...
I found the electronic symbol, it is called a "single gate enhancement mode mosfet"
Here is a hello world circuit to light up a led. So this is what I would describe as a "solid state" relay. It look like the work is done between pins 2 and 4 in our case.
