Condition
Some customers may comment that the windshield wipers only work on one speed only. Others may comment that the controls on the turn signal/multifunction lever are inoperative.
Cause
These conditions may be caused by the wiper motor inducing a voltage spike that causes an internal failure in the Body Control Module (BCM).
Correction
Technicians are to replace the BCM and the windshield wiper motor. Refer to the Body Control Module Replacement (SI Document ID# 1739665), Body Control Module Programming and Setup (SI Document ID# 1767502) and Windshield Wiper Motor Replacement (SI Document ID# 1725748) procedures in SI.
