If you create a number of jumper wires, you can add each system (one at a time) and see if communication is restored.

Ok now if i want to jump out the white (evac) wire how would I go about doing it?
Would i insert a wire into all the other slots except the whit wire and twist them together?
Im a novice at this.

Yes, add systems a wire to each system(and connect the ends together), isolating the ones you don't want, and see if communication resumes.

.....was communication restored to the BCM? I would have at a minimum: light green, dark green, gray, and purple. Make sure the shorting plug on star connector #2 is pulled.

I connected light green, dark green, gray, and purple still no comm to BCM. I tried it with other combos also leaving the radio and HVAC wire out of the loop. no good on any combo. Is the BCM toast?

I'm not ready to call it dead yet. PM me your email, so I can send you the BCM schematics. You need to check every 12 volt/ground input to the BCM.
