Consumer Description

MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS TURN ON EVEN IN THE OFF POSITION AND I HAVE HAD TO REMOVE THE FUSE SO THAT THEY WON'T RUN CONTINUOUSLY. I HAVE A 1998 DODGE CARAVAN. THE DEALER CAN'T SEEM TO FIND THE PROBLEM. I NOW HAVE TO DRIVE WITHOUT ANY WINDSHIELD WIPERS OR IF IT IS RAINING I HAVE TO STOP AND OPEN THE HOOD AND PUT THE FUSE BACK IN...THEN THEY RUN CONTINUOUSLY. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND I HAVE NOTICED ON THE INTERNET THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM. THE DEALER IS NOW ORDERING A PART CALLED A BCM WHICH COSTS $500 IN HOPES THAT IT WILL FIX THE PROBLEM BUT THEY ARE NOT SURE. *JB
