Intermittent Wiper problem

This has to be something simple. My wipers work fine, except when I select intermittent. They don't work at all. Unless the wait between wipes is like a day or something.

Any suggestions?!

the intermittent relay is inside the integrated control unit located on the BACKSIDE of the fuse box.

so it could be that or it could be your switch. I'd check the switch first cuz it's easier to do.

buy a helms manual, it'll save you a lotta grief.

Switch? Would this be the stick thing?

yea, it would be this "stick thing" you should test first.

to test it, remove the steering covers and lower knee panel

take the 8 pin connector
switch to "INT" setting
pins 1 (blue) and 7 (blue black) should be continuous
pins 3 (yellow blue) and 4 (green black) should be continuous

if this is good, then take the fuse panel off, flip it over, remove the integrated control unit, pop it open and look for dry solder joints. fix the solder joints, or simply replace with an ebay unit (usually gotta buy the whole fuse panel really cheap). I replaced one of these on my EF it's pretty easy.

All of them should be continuous?
