I've ran into an odd problem with my windshield wipers. They come on just fine, all settings work great. However, when I turn them off, they don't settle all the way back down; they act like they are in 'wait' mode (ie, where they should be in between strokes on a long delay setting).

Has anyone else ran into this problem?

Per the sticky, here's my info:

1) year of car

1993

2) Model of car

Camaro Z28

3) Engine: V8 or V6

5.7L V8

4) Transmission type; auto or manual

Manual, 6 Speed

5) Modifications performed

None that would affect this. Has had this odd problem for about 6 months now.

6) Clear & detailed description of trouble (in English)

Windshield wipers stay in a 'ready' or 'waiting' mode instead of settling all the way back down.

7) Any recent work done to car before trouble started.

None

8) What have you done so far

Nothing yet. The wipers work great aside from this small annoyance.

Thanks in advance for any insights.

 

I have the same problem took it to a automotive glass shop and they told me my wiper motor was out of time. Whatever that ment. Told me to have the motor replaced. I did just decided to live with it. But I must admit, it is pretty annoying.
