No blinkers or high beams. I put a new multifunction switch on, no change. Fuse and relays all seem good. Not sure were to go from here? Help?

Had similar symptoms once in an 09 F250, turned out to be the wipers motor itself was shorting out.

Embrace this and use the wipers to continually dust your windshield. No other need for them in Texas.

Probably a bad TIPM. Those were notorious for failing in that generation Dodge/chrysler product.

Have you had your windshield changed out recently?

I had a leak that shorted out everything once.

Put sticks in the wiper blade place, and glue some to the windshield. The friction could cause a fire to start, which is how lots of Dodges die anyway. Is yours an Outdoorsman?









Sorry, that was not nice. I hate electrical problems and hope you get it straightened out.

Going to do a hard reset tomorrow but I suspect it's a faulty ground wire in some obscure location.

It's a ranch truck so it could find itself in a pasture fire on any given day.

It's a ranch truck so it could find itself in a pasture fire at any point.

Hope it works out for you, but those are classic failed TIPM symptoms. It's an extremely common failure on the 2012 models. Really piss poor design from Dodge/Chrysler. Most electronics in those generations run thru the TIPM which has non-user serviceable relays soldered to the board. There's only 10 serviceable relays and they're mostly for powertrain, starter, and hvac systems.

For some reason my old version of AllData doesn't have wiring diagrams for that year dodge truck. Might be worth buying a sub to alldatadiy or mitchell1 to get the diagrams

Do you have a rain sensor? If so, is it possible that's wonky?

Thanks for your input. I was hoping against this solution, but it is more than likely my final destination on this issue. I received some advise that a broken data line would cause the TIPM to default to the wipers running continuously. If that is the case the TIPM will not fix my problem and I'm out about $400. I hate electrical shorts! Thanks again for you help.

No rain sensor on this model.

If you're in college station area I've got a tool that will help you chase down shorts or grounding problems, it will also test relays and other components. Just let me know if you want to borrow it.

If you can find someone with a prosumer or professional scan tool that has a network map, you may be able to see if one of the CAN networks is down. A generic bluetooth obdii scanner won't generally show that info. If it's down, you should have issues communicating with other modules on that same network.

Thanks for the offer bronco but I live on Boerne.
What is the tool and brand I might look into purchasing one.

I struggled for weeks trying to find a short. Finally bought one of these on Amazon and found the short within an hour. For whatever reason my blower motor and windshield wiper were on the same circuit/ fuse. The short ended up being the wiper motor itself, I never would have found it, I would never have even thought to look there.

Sounds like the TIPM has exited the chat.
