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 |

Ok, all my wiring seems to be there but my relay number is a bit different than SirAndy shows: my relay is 111 955 531 and SirAndy's article shows 477 955 531. Even though the first three numbers are different is it the same relay internally? The diagram on the side of the relay looks similar but I can't compare exactly since the photo has flash reflection on it.
Anyone got an idea of how to benchtest the relay itself? I pulled the plastic cover off the relay and can make it "wipe" if I push on the relay contact but otherwise no go. |
