I would be looking at wiring in the jamb of the door before I would dive into a BCM.

Ya, the first thing I checked. Found a thread that noted this particular problem-only driver door locks and all unlock button works is related to a problem in the BCM-. Im with you though-always look for the cheap and easy fixes first.

Default No bcm??

Then what controls all the electronics?

reverse camera stopped working but flickers when operating rear wiper
operate rear wiper and interior lights come on for a bit
with front wiper on rear wiper wont work
when side lights and dipped lights on, interior lights come on
driver powerseat only goes up and down not back and forward
with lights on reverse lights also on but very dim

had all wiring tested and was told it was a faulty bcm

All electronics are not dedicated to the BCM even if you did have a dedicated one like newer models.

Camera is controlled by the radio head
Interior lights are controlled by the cluster
Wipers are controlled by TIPM under the hood
Seat positions are controlled by the master switch on seat.
Reverse lights are controlled by the TIPM as well as Headlamps

What each module causes to happen depends on inputs that signal it to do so.
