I am having a problem with a Vanagon front wiper motor. Basically the problem is this: You pull back the arm on the steering collum and you get the normal spray of water from the windshield washer and the wipers start up. They wipe a few times and then stop. Normal right? Except they stop anywhere they feel like it instead of going back to the "park" position where they normally are. The same thing happens when you use the wipers normally. When you turn them off they stop where ever you flip the switch. You have to turn them back on until they come back to the "park" position and then shut them off them to get them to return. I have tried so far: new switch on the collum new motor known good wiper relay None of these things have helped at all. I believe there is a switch that tells the system when the wipers are back in the "park" position but I have no idea where it is. Anyone ever battle this problem? What was your solution? Thanks, Ken Wilford John 3:16 www.vanagain.com Phone: (856)-765-1583 Fax: (856)-327-2242
