    You will need a high series, LUX level BCM as well.

    As the intermittent wipers are speed sensitive.

    Hi there I've been looking at the variable speed wiper thing too for the VX exec, other than the stalk what BCM is needed for the variable speed wipers to go.
    I believe by upgrading the BCM I can get my drivers window (recenty installed electric windows) to do the auto lower thing but its not a big isssue.
    I have a wrecked VT /1 Acclaim for parts but haven't tried swapping the BCM yet,but thinking the variable wipers would be a nice extra.

    o yeah just brought this variable wiper thing as i wanted to try and get it in mine as i hate not being able to set it at diffrent speeds.
    so i carn't just change it over ??
    dang i was going to just do that and hoped it would work .
    and sorri BCM = ?? ( no idea what it is in short form heads not working right )
    bcm this isn't the main computer that im going to change to get my restrictions removed and diffrent tune also ? can i get him to add this on at same time maybe or what ?
