We switched out the motor for a new one, unfortunately that didn't fix the issue I will update after the software maintenence

Here you go

Bringing it to the dealership on 12/16/2021 for a software reflash. If this doesn't fix it I may be done trying cuz it may not be cost efficient

I will see what I can do. Never posted on YouTube, lol

I don't know anyone locally who has the equipment except dealerships. I need to make some calls This model doesn't have the rain sensor or any other sensors I believe

Welll...... I dropped it of and switched the stalk, but the issue persists. So to recap... Tested the relays and they are ok, tried a new motor with no positive results, The system check says everything is fine, and a new stalk hasn't fixed it yet. Only thing left I can think of is a software reset. I am not sure when I will be able to do that though Very frustrating

I will be dropping it off either Monday or Tuesday night and hopefully it gets fixed the next day. If its the switch I will be ecstatic, cuz that means no dealership (considering they wanted to charge me $400 and the part is only $50 and my mechanic thinks its a half hour job) . If not them its to the dealership for a software update I guess

I am hoping its just the stalk/multi switch. Now I just need time to drop it off again with the holidays coming up. It has to be the switch or software. Both my mechanic and I are excited to try the new stalk (he loves problem solving, lol)

OK.... Long awaited follow up I took it to my mechanic and he switched and checked all the relays, nothing. He bought a new motor, nothing. The only thing we have not tried in the multi function switch because the people he buys parts from claim that is a non refundable part (Unlike the motor). I spoke with a Ford dealership shop and they claim the switch is a huge issue on Ford F-150s and he is pretty sure that is the issue here (similar issue, even though he thought I was calling on the F-150 at 1st, brain fart on his end, lol). So I have told my mechanic to give me an estimate and I will pay for the part even if it isn't correct. The Ford guy said it could be software related also. I will be trying the switch 1st though as my mechanic can handle that at a much more reasonable cost

I am told by amateur mechanics that it is most likely the motor going bad. I will try to make a appointment with a real mechanic next week and let everyone know what he says

Unfortunately the warranty I was told I bought I was not charged for. So now I need to find time to take it to my regular mechanic and see if he can figure it out. No way am I paying dealership prices for repairs

When I put on any full mode it does the same thing, but freezes faster. I have an appointment on 10/5/21 to have it looked at. It should be covered, I just didn't really have time to drop it off, but it's been raining a lot and snow is coming soon enough, so I have no choice

Unfortunately this didn't fix the issue.

Thanks. I will try and let everyone know how it went

I just bought a used C-Max. I love it so far (1st hybrid!) but I have 1 issue... When I use the intermittent wipers They sometimes stop in the correct position, sometimes they stop in the up position and sometimes (the worse times) they stop right dead in the middle of my windshield. Why is this and how can it be corrected? I have tried restarting the wipers, yet they don't move. Eventually they do, but it takes a long time and I am trying to drive. Any suggestions?
