I am reviving this thread. It's been very dry in Texas did not use my wipers much. I started taking my dashpad off, so I removed the air intake and the blower motor. Now I also have good access to the wiper relay and the motor. I also took the steering wheel off since I need to replace the turn signal/headlight stalk switch. I took a real close look at the wiper switch while I am there:
I think my wiper switch is fine, don't see anything that doesn't look right with it. The connector to the intermittent wiper relay looked like it may not have been pushed in all the way??? kind of crooked so I pushed it in and wiggled a little to make sure I have good contact, so now I have this going on:
I can run intermittent wipers with the potentiometer switch between the gauges. The wipers park fine and the interval function works great. If I have intermittent wipers turned on I can also turn the wipers on with the stalk switch and get all three speeds, as long as the intermittent potentiometer is turned on the wipers will also park. If I turn the potentiometer to off position the wipers will park anywhere on the windshield if I turn them off with the stalk.
Can somebody tell me if this is normal? Seems like a dumb question, but do the wipers only park if you have the intermittent wiper switch in on position? If not what is not working right?
