Default Strange Electrical Issue(5th gen Malibu)

So, here recently my cars been experiencing a strange glitch in the system or something and I'm kinda flabbergasted by it. The running lights (the orange lights in the inside of headlight housing) have gone haywire, as well as the auto headlights, which have been flashing on and off. All this can happen, wether or not the key was in the ignition. Turnsignals act erratic. They'll cycle normally sometimes, and other times they'll flash rapidly. Fuses and wiring are fine. Also important to mention, the Service Vehicle soon lights on. Can't figure out what it could be since there haven't been any reported incidents like this on Google. It could be the Body control module but it has no other electrical problems. So I'm turning to yall. Any ideas?

a diagnostic scan might provide some clues.
