Trying to figure out a weird one.
1 _ wiper Switch in down position (should be off) Wipers operate in intermittent mode 2 - wiper switch up in any of the other positions (assume should be low and high) they do nothing So the relay is engaging intermittent when they should be "Off" and when they should be going at speed in the upper positions i get nothing. Could it be a bad switch on the steering column? Or could it potentially be an incorrect switch? I know the intermittent relay was an option at one point. Any help is appreciated. Thanks |

Thanks Appreciate all the help. Was able to dig into it again tonight and found a loose 12V wire in fuse box causing the motor to not get power. - so several people were right (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Im 90% of the way there - now the wipers will run in all speeds but for some reason they are still running on intermittent in the lower (2) positions on the switch - found a leaky gas tank while i was at it so the odyssey continues - I'm guessing at this point the switch is bad causing it to stay in intermittent mode even when in the "off Position" Anyone know if there is a way to just kill the intermittent part of the equation - i never drive the car in the rain - just want them functional in case i get caught in rain unexpectedly...On to reassembling the fresh air system... |
