The wiper circuit that controls (in this case that opens the ground circuit of the motor)the motor is staying closed to ground...it needs to be open when in delay mode...so that the delay circuit can control the opening and closing to ground. OR the delay circuit has an open circuit...burned up capacitor, relay, etc. Or it could be a stuck parking switch...which should open on in park mode...however the wipers would stay on until you turned off the wiper switch. Also, old cars up to 1980 or so...used ground type switches whereas new cars use powered switches and relays to latch the motor to ground.

How do you fix intermittent wipers on 1996 Ford Explorer?

On my 1995 Ford Explorer , two of the intermittent wiper positions stopped working and I would have to push the windshield washer squirter button 2 or 3 times before fluid would squirt . It turned out to be the multi - function switch inside the steering column ( turn signals , hazards , wipers , high beams etc . ) A Ford dealer changed it quite a few years ago and I've had no problems since

Intermittent wipers dont work 03' silhouette They work on high speed no other speed will work As soon as I take it off of the high speed the wipers will stop and not park Fuse is fine help?

The wiper motor can be replaced reasonably easy, however your particular problem is usually caused by the circuit board that controls the wiper motor and the delay cycles, retraction, etc. The board is also quite cheaper than the entire wiper motor. It is also called a wiper pulse or relay board and can be found online from around $25 and up. The electronic board plugs into the wiper motor, and the electric cable plugs into the circuit board.


How do i fix wipers on 2000 Toyota Camry that only works on low no intermittent or high?

There aren't any switches to check/replace i.e. wiper switch, wiper relay therefore it must be a bad motor.


On a 2000 Chevrolet Venture the wipers will only work in the high and low speeds. The intermittent only works on one speed and the wipers will shut off after several seconds. What is the problem?

General Motors had a recall on some of the delay modules. Call the dealership and give them your vehicle identification number and have them check to see if it applies or if there are any that have not been done. It is free and it does not matter if you are the 5th person to own it. A RECALL is FREE, a technical service bulletin is NOT.


What would cause the windshield wipers to freeze in position when the switch is flipped to the high speed and how can they be repaired?

I have a 94 caprice that does this. Apparently it is either that speed only on the wiper motor that has a problem or the relay for the high speed may have failed and the motor may be ok. As it is a noncritical issue I haven't worried too much about it. If I find out more I will update this.


How does the intermittent recovery test differ from the intermittent endurance test?

The intermittent recovery test primarily assesses an athlete's ability to recover between repeated high-intensity efforts, focusing on the speed and efficiency of recovery periods. In contrast, the intermittent endurance test evaluates an athlete's overall endurance capacity during prolonged intermittent exercise, measuring performance over a series of high-intensity bouts. While both tests involve repeated efforts, the key difference lies in their emphasis: recovery versus sustained endurance.
