Windshield wiper HELP.

[marbs]

SO here's my problem. Whne I have my wipers on LOW or HIGH they work but anywhere in between I have to hold the handle in a ceratain position for it to work OR when the turn signal is going it works. Do i need to replace the handle or is it just a loose wire? Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is REALLY annoying.

Take the MFS (turn signal) out and clean it by soaking it in WD 40 and working all the motions or buy a new one.

i have the exact same problem. always have. tried fixing it but failed. so ive learned to just drive w/ it. i heard you can remove that switch for the wipers and clean/fix it. but i have yet to be able to. i tried pulling on it very hard and it will not budge. how is it removed?

Remove the lower column cover. There is a bolt on the switch on the bottom and the top of the column. Unplug harness from it. Disassemble carefully, theres a couple of springs inside. Clean swithc with contact cleaner, wd, even a regular pink eraser (slot car style, for you guys who remember), reassemble carefully paying attention to the tabs/positions of various parts.

whenever i use my wipers in the intermittent positions, the dash area makes a fast clicking noise, like electricity arcing or something like that. whats that about? anybody else experience this?

My dash "clicks" also when Im adjusting the wiper speed, my guess it is just some relay doing its job...

My windsheild wipers never worked on the intermittent setting, I replaced the wiper motor, works great now, and I also cleaned out the MFS...Changing the motor did it for me...
