  1. Thank you for the reply. I am pretty diligent about not using my wipers when they are frozen stuck or when they have to push a ton of snow. I do not know if there is any other way of using improperly. What seems odd to me is that they only will not restart if used in the intermittent mode. Is there any explanation for that? What is it about the intermittent mode that is different than the low mode or the manual mist mode?
  2. Hopefully I can describe this problem well enough: - When I use the wipers in High, Low or Mist everything is fine. I can use them, shut them off, restart them everything is good. - If I use them in intermittent mode they work as expected. I can set the various ranges of delay. - The problem is that if they are used in intermittent mode and then shut off, they will not start back up in any mode. The only way to get them to start is by putting the switch to an on position and then giving the wiper arm a very slight tug. Even if I turn the car off and come back the next day, they will not work until I give it a slight pull. I don't hear any type of motor trying to run, or any slipping - just silence from the wiper motor. I can't seem to find anything online that relates to this issue. It seems to me that it is an electronic issue, but I can't understand why pulling on the wiper reengages them. Is there some type of sensor that prevents the wipers from starting when they are not in the "rest" position? If anyone has any thoughts please let me know and thank you in advance!
