I am another T&C owner who has the front wiper problems (only works when using the "wash" button), and have tried the easy fixes (swap relays, swap switch module), but still no normal hi/lo or intermittent operation. They will run several swipes at high speed when the button is pushed, or 1-2 at low speed, so the motor and mechanisms are fine.
I have read dozens of threads about this problem but have not found one where the OP posted the results of his search for a solution. I could assume all of them are still driving with no wipers, but that seems implausible.
SO...what has worked in all of these cases? PLEASE thread starters, if you post a problem, then find a solution...let us know what it is.
Short of replacing the BCM...which I'm not gonna do at those prices for wiper operation I might need 2-3 times a year...I'd like to fnd that elusive "fix".

While my 96 was under warranty, the dealer changed both the multifunction swutch and the BCM. Two years later they started again. That was 10 years ago. I just pull the fuse during the summer and live with it the test of the year. 90% of the time they only sweep at startup. In your case a BCM is really the only choice if you want to fix it. Don't count on it lasting forever.
