Trouble w/ Power Locks and Car Alarm going off Sign In

Hi,

I have a 2007 Saturn ION 2.0 sedan with 84,000 miles. Yesterday, while I was driving I noticed that my power locks were clicking and the dome light in my car would go on while I was driving then it would fade out. That same evening my car alarm would go off on it's own but there was nobody near my car. I turned the alarm off and locked my car without setting the alarm.

Today, I noticed the same problem with my power locks clicking and my dome light fading off and on sporadically. While I was at the gym working out my car alarm went sounded and then it shut off on it's own shortly after. I drove the car home and I locked the car without setting the alarm.

In a normal situation when I start the car the dome light comes on but then fades out after I start driving. Likewise, the power doors lock on their own and there's no problem. This is not a normal situation though and I'm worried that it will eventually drain my battery.

I have remote entry on my key chain but I know I need the battery replaced. I'm thinking it's something more possibly a fuse? I'm hoping it's something inexpensive to fix.

Thanks in advance for any help/insights you can provide.

Sounds like you have some BCM(body control module) module problems.. I would take it in to get it properly diagnosed to make sure they are usally not cheap.
