Default Re: HOW-TO...EK windshield wiper fix for posessed wipers.....

Have the problem when I start the car the wiper motor comes on by selecting anything intermittent low or high and returning the switch to off the wipers shut off. The next time I start it I have to turn them on then off again.

Is this a motor problem were it will not park and therefore when you power up the car it thinks to run until u shut it off? I see checking a ground under the DS head light fixed it the customer came and said I replaced the switch but no luck.

First off, punctuation is incredibly helpful in most cases.

If you haven't already replaced the switch, try to find a replacement switch at a junkyard, and if that doesn't fix it, replace wiper motor.

replaced the wiper motor with one from o'rielys and it would not consistently park and forget about intermittent so total disaster, the plastic rivets tops popped off trying to pick them out, called honed they want $5 each for them. Called auto zone, pep boys and Discount Auto no one can get it for days, I'll try napa tomorrow. If not O'rielys will have one on Tuesday. Thanks for the help it sux getting bad parts...

Man that's some shitty luck! All I ever work on is sedans, so I dunno what those rivets look like. If at all available, I usually upgrade to metal hardware
