so today i'm coming home from school and i have shaving cream on the windshield because of a little prank. i pull the right lever thing to disperse washer fluid and the fluid shoots out without the auto wiper movement following. Isn't this the cause of a faulty BCM? In addition, I still have my interior light problem so i'm thinking this could pinpoint the fault location.

Any help please?

thanks

 

Check your fuses for the windshield wipers. Also what is your interior light problem?

 

well since you had that shaving cream on your windshield it wont fog up in the morning if you didnt wash it already

talked about it the other day at work

 

haha marshall, thanks for that bit of advice.

mazzivart. a few weeks ago i tweaked something while installing a custom LED into the ignition light, and possible touching pos and neg. something popped and now my interior lights will not go off...it has to be the BCM or other type of module?

 

I get PISSED when people f*ck with my car. I almost got into an all-out fist fight with my best friend because he put lord of war stickers on my car (he hid from me for half an hour so I cooled down). OT but eh

 

Err, it only helps with the fogging if the shaving cream was on the inside of the windshield, not outside.

 

haha, that's funny, that was a trick back when I was racing motocross to stop your goggles from fogging up, it works bomb, never thought of doing it to my windsheild!!

my shop teacher had a favorite saying- Keep It Simple Stupid, he said it like a broken record, but it's true, when diagnosing a problem with todays complex cars you have to start simple, REAL SIMPLE! screw checking the fuses and bcm, from what I remember of this prank the point of the shaving cream was to make the person try to use their wipers which were conveniently attached to the windsheild with a glue stick and a lighter...............

 

hahahahahahaha^^^

btw. you should see me trying every different electronic in the car trying to see what else won't work. maybe i'll buy and infared night vision electrical current detector and turn everything on, showing where this electric is not...i have no idea

 

then how does it still work when you put it on a bathroom mirror?... its still on one side

i meant from the morning dew...

sorry for OT

but did it work this morning?

 

Err, a little off topic too. There is only fog when there is enclosed space. The outside of the windshield doesn't fog cause it is exposed to the atmosphere. Same goes for your bathroom mirrow. It is in an enclosed space. If you open all the doors and windows in the house near the bathroom, it won't fog no more.

 

ftr condensation can happen in an enclosed space or not, it's when warmer air hits a cooler surface, the outside of the windsheild will fog when the air-condiniioning cools the outside of the windsheild enough on a hot day, when a bathroom mirror fogs the warm moist air hits the colder mirror, same thing with a cold beer

 

yeah what he said. get in your car on an early morning and don't breathe for a while...you'll see a fogless windshield.

 

check fuse box maybe blown fuse for the wipers

 

haha i know someone who put horse crap all along the air vents and windshield wipers of my friends 96 max. They proceded to use a fake spray paint and wrote "OH $HIT" on the hood. Funny as hell but i felt bad for the my friend who had to deal with it.
