Dead battery or a loose connection at battery. Battery is hidden behind the drivers front wheel. Try a jump start first..unless you already have. You can jump start off the positive post under the hood. Eccessive water or snow can cause the battery connections to corrode due to the splashing around the fender guard. This wasn't the best place to locate the battery. Good luck!
The car battery. Same as the lights, cigarette lighter, windshield wipers, power windows, power seats, and the heater (for a little while), when the engine is off.
The intermitten wiper relay is bad just found this on my daughters 1994 Jeep GC. If you remove the cover under your hood release cable to the left of the brake petal you will find the relay. You can pull it out and hook the wiring harresses together and wipers will work, but the intermitten will not.
Ok so im answering my own question. I found that the wires attached to the stering colum had 1 wire not making good connection.Put a new end on it and it was just fine everything started working again.Thanks for reading the post . Could you explain more where you found the problem, I am also having issues.
Weak battery or alternator output.
Having the same problems except my wipers won't park. My Jeep mechanic told me I needed to replace my wiper motor - he pulled the wiper delay module and bypassed it to prove it wasn't anything to do with the module. Have you solved your problem yet? I'll let you know if I'm successful after replacing the motor. On my '90 Cherokee, the wipers only had one speed, would not park. I had the motor and delay module replaced - still did not work. I then had the linkage replaced with a rebuild - works perfect now! I'd check the linkage.
You might have electrical problems with your 1998 Sebring because there is a problem with the main computer or "brain" of the vehicle. This could cause the wipers, gear shifter, and air bag to malfunction.
lose wiring in the lights nothing to do with a dead battery just lose wiring
Wipers, door locks, lights, alarm if equippedWipers, door locks, lights, alarm if equipped
I just took my 97 sebring convertable in for no turn signals, wipers, rear defroster and radio. They replaced the ignition switch and now everthing works.
Coupe is different than sedan. See sources and related links below for a wiper blade size listing for the 1999 Chrysler Sebring.
yes.
On the 2004 Chrysler Sebring, the wiper blade sizing varies by coupe vs. sedan. See sources and related links below to lookup your scenario.
Not more than a couple of miles. This will vary by the number of draws that are turned on electrically....lights, wipers, heater fans etc. The battery condition also matters in this scenario.
Daytime running lights (DRLs) do not typically meet the requirements of the wipers-on-lights law, which mandates that vehicle headlights must be activated when windshield wipers are in use due to low visibility conditions. DRLs are designed to enhance visibility during the day but may not be sufficient in low-light situations, such as rain. Therefore, drivers are generally required to manually turn on their headlights when using windshield wipers in such conditions to comply with applicable laws.
replace the ignition switch
Many vehicles have a "mist" feature that makes the wipers swipe one time upon startup to remove mist or fog. This normally can be turned off...check manual.
I had the same problem on my 2005 trailblazer, my gf started the vehicle on a cold morning, and turned on the wipers to clear snow, the wipers where frozen to the window and of course didnt move. she said when they finally came on they wouldn't stop, the wiper controls high, low, delay did nothing, and even with them in the off position they continued to run, when they key was turned off the wipers stopped where they where at when the key switched off, when she got home the wipers where still in that same spot and the switch seemed to not do nothing, however they switched on in the high function and then wouldn't go off until the key was off. she brought the vehicle to the Chevy dealer and they said the control module, that is located on the wiper motor was shot. so they run around $115.00, so that is what was wrong with my trailblazer. Hope that helped you out?
