windshield wiper whimsy

Cleaned the battery terminals and the problem with the wipers coming on stopped altogether.

Try to find a compatible wiper motor, a BMW stamp on a wiper motor is going to Cost $.

$180 @ www.partsgeek.com

I would consider a used compatible wiper motor from the salvage yard + rainx.

Replacing your wiper motor is best remedy for your wiper problem.
