Form 7004 doesn't require a signature.

If their is a payment along with the form 7004, it is required a signature.

When the IRS requires a signature, they generally put a signature line on the form…

you can use an 8878 for efile with an ACH payment.  Just for your records

If at first you don’t succeed…..find a workaround
