Hi everyone,

Unfortunately I'm on another odyssey trying to fix something on my 1995 Camaro. The wipers were only working on some of the pulse settings, and the low speed setting didn't work at all. I went through the diag charts but nothing really seemed to match up entirely as a fix. Wiper switch didn't test bad and it wasn't the circuit board/wiper cover. So finally I gave up and tried a new motor, and all the settings run again. Never thought a motor like that would go bad and cause those issues.

But, I'm still having problems. I've carefully put the assembly back together, making sure the mechanicals (crank arm, pin, etc.) are in the right place per the GM shop manual. Now all settings function, but only high and low correctly run and park afterwards. All of my pulse modes start with the wipers running twice then stopping in the up position. Then it proceeds to cycle from there down and back up again. It does park in the right position if you turn off from the intermittent settings though, which is strange. Basically on a pulse setting everything runs backwards.

I'm not sure what could still be wrong with it, especially since it didn't do this before.

 

did you replace the entire unit or just the motor. the circuit board is what usually goes bad and does weird stuff.

 

It's a new motor/circuit board combination.

I originally thought I had traced it down to the circuit board, because the original board had a couple of leaking caps on it. But that wasn't it, and I now have an extra (different brand) new circuit board as well.
