My left head light, rear brake light, and left rear turn signal aren’t working. The front left turn signal works, and flashes quickly. The left signal on the mirror also works. All rear running lights and turn signals, including the left side work. Is this a BCM issue? I’ve checked ground, bulbs and fuses.

Yep, the BCM controls these functions but if you want to be sure you should do a CAN scan which will give you code for the BCM, you can get a CAN scanner (Controller Area Network) which will work on most cars from Amazon.

here is a video to show you how:

Here is how to replace the BCM, you can get a preprogrammed unit by searching Google or Ebay. Check out the images (below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
