Molly's 2011 Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 Hi I'm new on here and I just experienced something baffling. I have a 2011 Journey and last night it was raining and when I tried to turn the wipers off they stayed on. Also my turn signals, high beams, windshield washers and everything else on the switch quit working. I need help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkeaton Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 Sounds like a clock spring or the switch went bad. dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigtsr Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 Have the battery disconnected for 10 - 20 minutes first , could be the computers just need to be reset. Easy thing to try before paying for diagnostics. jkeaton and dhh3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhareFred Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 Ummm, my 09 has wpiers/washers/wiper delay on one switch, high beams/fogs/dash dimmer/directionals on another. Are the new models all on one? If not the multifunction switch is not that hard to change....but if they are still on two I would think something more is amiss....two different systems being affected.

dhh3 Posted May 9, 2016 Report Share Posted May 9, 2016 Newer ones have a real light switch. Wiper stalk is on the left now, where the lights used to be. Stalk would be in the way of the start/stop button. Animal Mother and jkeaton 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly's 2011 Posted May 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2016 Thanks everyone for your input. I took the column covers off and found that the wiper multi-switch had simply come unplugged. Cheap fix lol Animal Mother, dhh3, jkeaton and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
