Wiper motor doesn't park
Have a problem that has been bugging me for a while. My wiper does not operate in Auto, and will only work for a minute then stop, randomly at different places. It won't stay on when in low or high, will work for about 15-20 wipes then stop. I replaced the relays, and judging by the fact that they "work", it shouldn't be the motor. Any ideas?

Balcanthez: Scottish Chap is correct. There on contacts on the motor unit that become dirty/corroded over time. The views on here are split. Some say you can open up and clean contacts to correct. Others opt to replace motor. I picked one up off e-bay cheap and replaced. Cured same issues I was having. It can be tricky removing old unit, but, doable. Search this site for how to's. Good luck.
