Blackburn gave themselves breathing space above the Premier League drop zone in a match where defensive errors accounted for all three goals.
Wigan keeper Vladimir Stojkovic made his debut, but had a torrid time and was at fault for Rovers' first goal.
Morten-Gamst Pedersen pounced on one of his many errors before a Gary Caldwell second-half header made it 1-1.
Pedersen then headed against the crossbar before his own corner was headed home by Nikola Kalinic.
With Chris Kirkland suffering from a collarbone injury, Stojkovic came in but all too often arrived for balls he had no hope of reaching while staying on his line when he should have come to collect.
The win moves Rovers up to 11th spot in the Premier League while Wigan remain in 14th place, just two points off the bottom three.
Wigan boss Roberto Martinez made five changes to his side from Saturday's FA Cup fourth-round draw at Notts County, although there was only one from the team that beat Wolves 2-0 in their last league outing.
