Wipers activate on Start

Hello everyone, 1st time poster here, but really enjoyed all the info.
I just tackled replacing the odometer gear in my '85. And amazingly, it worked!
This was a big undertaking for me, but I got it all back together, and working.

Except, when I start it, the wipers activate 2x then turn off. It kind of kills my coolness factor when I'm leaving. Any clue where I should look first? I really don't want to take the pod out again if I don't have to. Thanks!

Maybe the wires for the intensive washer button have exposed copper that's making contact.
