Why do your windshield wipers stay in the up position in a 97 camaro?

A bad pulse board or window wiper motor can cause your wipers to stay in the "up" position.


Wipers are automatic on a caddy cts they wont cut off even when its not raining?

The windshield wipers are not automatic... the lever that controls the wipers have three positions and you will have to pull the lever down to the off position. The position below off is for mist. If you pull the lever to that position and let it go, the lever will go back to the off position.


How do you reset the windshield wipers for a 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue?

There is no "reset" in the wiper motor. If your wipers do not park, it is likely your wiper motor parking contact or cam is broken. Try running the wipers with the key in the "ON" position, then turn the wipers off using their switch while they are up on the windshield. They should park themselves at the bottom. The good news is a wiper motor is pretty cheap at a junkyard, and not too hard to replace.


Why do windshield wipers go on by themselves if replacing the switch did not help?

There is a sensor inside the wiper motor which keeps the wipers running until they reach the "park" position. If that sensor has failed, the wipers will continue to run, seeking the park postition and unable to find it. Wiper motors for American vehicles are often relatively inexpensive and should solve the problem for you.


Wipers don't return to park position?

Could be for many different reasons. Maybe the sensor for the normal position is defective. The wipers might need a position adjustment, usually can be done by a flat head screw driver.

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.
