My wipers hesitate coming on.Once she warms up they are fine,already swaped out ground.Should I remove and clean motor or look at relay. tia. | ||

There was another post on this recently. Mine does the same thing, but normally if you push down on the lever it will provide an instant on effect. I just do that until all is well. When it stops working I will find the problem. Of course I don't use wipers much anyway.....Rain X does wonders. | ||

Thats exactly whats going on with mine the momentary works always then I wait till it warms up.I think the only thing to do is take apart motor and clean all contacts,rainx does work well but leaves that funk of an odor. thanks. | ||

I doubt it is the motor if the momentary works fine. I would say more along the lines of the switch or a relay, but like I said I haven't looked into it yet....Let me grab the manual and see what it says. | ||

Wayne, sent you an email with the wipers electrical curcuit. Hope it helps, like I said I am not worried about it yet. | ||

I'm not worried yet either just anoyed as I'm sure you are,I have a manual as well.I'm thinking along the lines of relay contacts probably they need to be cleaned and sprayed with wire dryer.But I agree its not the motor the motor will either turn or it wont. Wayne | ||

LOL, raining here in Phx this morning and my wiper switch wasn't working, but flip the stalk down and the instant once-over works. Therefore, I assume it's the rotating switch mechanism. I better fix it before it rains again next year... | ||

What is the mechanism,the wiper arm assembly? | ||
| Blue (Blue) Dweb Lounge Member Username: Blue Post Number: 971 Registered: 04-2003 |
never torn into it - probably have to buy a whole new stalk for $995 from the dealer. | ||

I was joking about the $995...  it's probably really about $50 or so if I had to guess | ||
