I see there is a lot of threads on wiper issues, this is what mine is doing.
Quit then started working.
Cycles 6 or more times when turned of.
Stoped in the uprigh location turned of and on several times the kinda works.

I see things from replace the wiper unit to Timer and then switch, it seams if it runs the wiper unit should be good not sure about Timer or what ever it is called.
Were is the timer located and does any one have a part # for it?
Any other Ideas?

Any help would be great.
Thanks
Richard

 

My wipers do similar things come on if a big bump is hit not allways not come on when I turn it on or turn it on intermiten and it goes full speed. Sometimes I have to turn on full speed just to get it to wipe I have read lot of threads and others with this problem are stumped

There is actually more to the wiper motor than just running. There is a park switch inside it that will open and allow the motor to stop when the wipers arrive at the bottom of their travel, after they are switched off.

Not sure about your third gen truck but I have seen several second gen trucks with erratic wipers that wouldn't park, or would park in the middle of the windshield. The park switches were faulty, and a new wiper motor assembly fixed them up.

 

Thanks for the leads.
I found a replacement wiper unit know if some one can tell me were the timer is located I will try that at the same time.
Thanks

My '06 did the same thing and it was the switch on the column.

 

My 04 does that.. It was fixed when i opened this box.. i re soldered all the connections in there. That also fixed my head light issue of the passenger side being out all the time.

 

I broke down and bought a new wiper assembly and if fixed all the funkey operating problems.

 

Must be the time for it. My wife had Dodge replace wiper module yesterday on her truck. 300 bucks plus. but they work fine now.
