Our vanagon's rear windshield now spontaneously turns itself on, and won't turn off. We assume it's a somewhat overzealous attempt on its part to protect us from rain that isn't there. The wiping is also constant, rathet than its normal intermittent. Sometimes even if we turn off the engine, the wiper starts wiping again as soon as we start it again. Currently, we've solved the problem by pulling the fuse. (If that didn't do the trick I'd REALLY be worried.)

Sounds like a bad relay to me, but I know next to nothing about windshield wipers, so I thought I'd get opinion from the list before I go buy a new relay.
