Default Lights going nuts.....

I've never seen this happen before.... but here goes.

Last night i'm leaving the bar and hit the unlock button on my fob... both my headlights pop up and the driverside motor is making this loud *** noise. Does it with both lock and unlock bottons on the fob. Now I start the car and the driverside parking light is out... I turn just the fog light/parking lights on and the headlights pop up.... AND my parking light works.... and the driverside blinker won't work at all. I have NOOO idea wtf is going on with my car, I've never seen or heard of anything like this.

Any ideas?

Check all wiring for a short or a bad ground. Also check to see if any connection are loose.

Okay... I just called a place and they said its more than likely a Body Control Module. Can anyone confirm this?

Could be your BCM, but as others have said check for a short or anything screwy in the wiring.
