Put in a new DME relay, still having problems
Early '85 944, fuel pump is not working, no spark either. Also, the windshield wipers are on and I cannot turn them off. I put a new DME relay in and had the fuel pump tested, and it seemed to work. Yet these problems persist, is there a way to test the computer? Any suggestions?

I know that this may sound silly but have you looked to make sure that the timing belt it not broken or slipping?
Make sure that the rotor is turning. Michael |

try pulling the intermittent relay to get the wipers to shut off, they will still work when selected to the fully on position, just a temp\perm "fix".

Hey qawse, I just purchaised a 951 that wasn't running and had wipers that never stopped. I found that there was a connector near the DME that was not connected which was necessary to turn my wipers off. I have not yet gotten the car running so I am not sure if the wipers and no-start are related, but I did fix my wipers, right mirror and window! It is a two-sided rectangular harness... good luck!
