Default 2012 Journey wipers won't turn off

2012 Journey wipers will not turn off. At first it was just once in awhile, now it is pretty much constant. When cannot use turn signals, turn on high beams or mist window.

Hi matthew83,

Sorry to hear about this! If you decide to visit your local dealership for further diagnosis I'd be happy to offer assistance if needed. Just send us a PM with your VIN and let me know.

j keaton: I disconnected the wiring harness from the multi function switch and it still failed. All wiring 8 inches from multi function switch seems to still have insulation in one piece. Any other ideas?

if the interior high speed CAN bus goes down...the wipers will not shut off. You need to find out what modules have lost communication and what communication codes are setting. requires a full function scan tool.
