Can Tech2 change wiper's count when spraying fluid?

Hi team,

During winter, I have to use a lot of windshield washer fluid, especially on snowy days.

Every time you press the windshield washer, after spraying fluid, the wipers cycle about 4 times.

The problem: 4 times is a lot!

Can Tech2 reduce the cycle count for this specific function?

I am about to bring car to garage so I was wondering if this is possible.

Thanks.

What? 4 is not a lot.

Trying using less often for longer duration. No point in trying to keep the c windshield spotless when is gross out.

No you cannot change the cycle number, its in the programming. So unless you can write code
for the bcm its the way it is.

It is allot. If your wipers are any good it only needs two passes tops.
Anything more and your just playing with yourself.

In the winter when there is more muck and dirt than actual snow you need more fluid less wiping or it just streakes to hell

And wears out those wipers unecessarily.

I always wished this was adjustable.

^^^ This ^^^
After the second pass, it just wipes dry, which kills the wiper and worst, keeps making that horrible noise.

I thought maybe a Tech2 could change this...
Just like a Toyota Tech2 can change the number of blinking when you barely touch your left lever.

I've honesty always hated cars that auto wipe more than 1 time when you spray. It's not hard to wipe a few extra times with the selector if needed.

The 16 Camaro only does 1 pass. I agree 2 would be ideal maybe 3 at the most
