Replace the wiper motor assembly. Fairly easy on these-- take off the wiper arms, and the motor is under the hood above the motor. You may need a mirror to see it. Three bolts and the electrical connections later, you can trade it in with some money for a reman part.

Better yet remove the cover, there will be a metal tab that is bent. it is the park tab. bend it back towards the stop lever on wiper arm crank.

Why would the wiper start automatically on your 1997 E320 every time you start the car?

If your car is equipped with rain sensing wipers and the wiper switch is in position I, the wiper will run once at tutrning on the ignition to indicate that the wipers are in rain sensing mode. this is what the documentation for my 2002 E320 says!. Thanks, Vic


Why does your wiper windshield motor only work with a 30 amp fuse and not operate with a 20 amp fuse in the car?

It should work with a 20 amp, just not as long. Wipers use a fair amount of current so the factory puts a 30 amp in. Perhaps that particular 20 amp is bad or it blew as soon as you turned the wipers on.

Why do the windshield wipers go on and off 1996 Dodge Grand Caravan?

The wiper motor has a switch inside of it. When they are turned off and the wipers go to the down position it trips the switch in the motor that tells the computer they are in the down position. If that switch in the motor is faulty, the wipers are repositioning until the switch is tripped to the off position. THE FIX.... Replace the wiper motor.

Why would the windshield wipers work but stay in the up position when turned off on a 1994 camaro?

The motor shaft and the wipers are'nt connected properly(the timing is off), just disconnect the wipers from the motor. Turn your car on and cycle the motor and it should be back at the home position. Pull your wipers back down and reconnect and all should be fine.Thats if you put in a new wipermotor. If not, maybe the wiper switch is bad.
