When I am driving my car all of a sudden the service vehicle light comes on and all of my gauges drop to zero, Temp, oil, battery and fuel gauge then the check gauge light comes on sometimes but not all the time all lights on the dash will flash, they may stay on or they all may return to normal and do it again. The service vehicle light stays on until I turn the car off, when I start it back up everything is normal for a while and it starts doing it again. The mechanic that does my work put it on a diagnosis machine and it read a bad, or loose wire to a Body Control Module. Any help would be appreciated.

There is no equipment that tells you that you have a loose wire or any specific failed component. It merely records data and reports it. It's up to the technician to determine what caused the failure. You could have an issue with the cluster itself but it's going to have to be troubleshooted by a very competent tech DURING THE FAILURE.
