Title: Rear window wiper
Post by Nobby on Sep 23^rd, 2004, 5:39pm

I have a 1995 Ultima estate and have a problem with rear wiper. When switching on the ignition there is no problem, but as soon as I start the engine the rear wiper starts going and won't stop even thopugh the rear wiper is not switched on. Normally the wipers are only intermittent, but this one keeps going continuously and is driving me nuts

have you tried unpluging the switch and seeing if it still does it, also put a voltmeter on the thing and operate it see if it is working on/off or just shorted/on ta,ta des............

Will try both of those, thanks Des. This morning the wiper operated on starting the engine then stopped after a few seconds. This afternoon have started the engine twice without the wiper coming on! Crazy or what.
