The root cause of a possible wet BCM is your “udders” which drain the windshield cowl area being clogged !!…is the area around the BCM and floor damp ??…hopefully drying out the BCM MAY work !!

Hey guy, it would help a bit if you used basic punctuation! Not one period, capital letter, or comma anywhere!! Not being smart, but when you want help, it doesn't hurt making things easier for the helper to read/understand. Help us help YOU.....
