Default 07 H3 wipers acting up

The wifes 07 h3 has a wiper problem, the other day she was driving and the wipers froze in the middle of the winshield and the only way they would continue was to change the selector. the will work continusly on high setting but also when the vehicle is started they come on and cycle 3 times and stop wherever they feel like it, took it to the chevy dealer to find out if they have any tsb or recall and they said no and that BCM was the problem. 300$ fort the part and atleast an hour of labor. anybody have this problem and is there any way to buy a BCM that is programmed and install it myself?

I believe you have to pop off fake vents near wipers,it sits under them i believe.

Mine just started doing this. So replacing the wiper motor resolves the problem?
