Hi. Having a wiper and sprayer issue where they turn on by themselves. Tried new battery.i really think the bcm is messed up.. i have a 06 r53.. can i get a similiar yr bcm and just plug it in?

 

The BCM , 61356982114

I have heard of a couple people getting lucky with a BCM on exact options and model , but only a couple people have it work. Most of the time it require a new BCM which then has to be flashed to the car by a MINI Dealership.

Im going to try and get a used wiper switch. Much cheaper and maybe it may fix it. Im completly puzzled on whats causing it..

 

You can try the wiper stalk first but if the BCM got wet or you have a sunroof and water leaked into the floor area , that might point to the BCM. The stalk is the cheaper part to try first , make sure you get the right one , with the yellow flasher end and itf you have auto wipers or not. Thanks

 

If you go per the bible you must buy a new BCM and code it to the car, that said you can plug a used BCM into your car and fix your issue for 85% cheaper than a new unit.
