I pulled the wiper rack yesterday to clean and lube all the linkages while I've got the gas tank out. It seems that I have the intermittent wiper relay under the hood on one of the cowl support beams. I have four clicks to my wiper stalk on the column; dead, dead, slow speed, fast speed. Which position is supposed to be "intermittent" and does anyone know how to troubleshoot the relay and switch?
Thanks, Joel |

My wiper switch already has the 4 positions. The two lowest ones do nothing (one of them should since that would be "Off"). Problem is that I have the intermittent delay but not sure how to diagnose the wiring for that . . . was hoping someone here like Bowlsby would know. The only electrical diagrams I have are from the Haynes manual and they're hard to find. I have yet to find a mention of intermittent wipers. They seem to claim that the relay I believe is for the wipers is for a "Headlamp cleaning system" which I've never seen!
