sound more like a problem with the indicator/wiper stalk assembly to me, you should be able to pick one up from a wreckers pretty cheap , if you know how to remove and refit the steering wheel its not much harder. after removing the steering wheel its 3 screws and 1 pug to replace. maybe un click the clock spring first.
iv never heard of smartlock causing wiper issues and you haven't mentioned any problems with you door locks... Cheers Cam
