I was playing around with my starter, and of course the negative terminal fell BACK onto the battery, and I think I shorted the leads, because now nothing gets power, and the battery's voltage is fluctuating between 11v and 7v. I was making small talk at a buddy's shop and someone said it sounded like a bad BCM (Body Control Module). I've never heard of this, and I'm definitely not close enough to this shop for them to stop trying to get me to buy things I don't need, so is the BCM a legitimate thing? Any other ideas?
