My windshield wipers don't like to return to home position (stock on the left side). In addition the "low speed" doesn't work either. Two clicks up (high speed) works but I get to do the old "time the shut off" if I want them to stop at the "home" position. Otherwise, it's just wiper roulette.
Is this a bad relay (the one in the front under the cowl) causing the condition? |

Does your air blower motor work? It's on the same power circuit with the "return home" function.
If it works, remove the wire connector on your wiper switch and check that you have 12v on the green-white wire when the wipers are not parked. If you have then it's the switch. If no power than it's either 1. the green-white wire or 2. the microswitch on the wiper motor or 3. the red-white wire that brakes away from the red-black one supplying power to the blower. PM me if you don't figure it out. |
