Wind shield wipers messed up.

I have noticed that my wipers wont come on some times when I turn them on. If you go from the off position to any of the delay positions they may not work. If you go to the low or high positions they work every time.
Also, in the delay position, they will wipe 3 or 4 cycles before going back to rest like normal.
Anybody have this problem occur before?

No a problem on my 2500 but our Dodge Caravan's wipers are possessed. Just like you are experiencing. They will even wipe when they are turned off. Course I could never get it to happen at the dealer.

Next time its in for service I am going to tell them again, and again, and again...

DmaxEter, My wipers just started acting up in a similar fashion. ON intermittent, they sometimes pause like they should and other times continue on low for 2-5 cycles (randomly). I will be taking it by the dealer as it just started happening 1 month before the 5yr warr is up.

Since the problem showed up all of the sudden while I was out running errands, I am afraid it might go away. Hopefully that is not the case.

Seems like there was a thread on this and the fix was to replace the entire lever switch.

Carbuff415, unless you purchased an extended warranty of some sort, the 5 yr applies to the Cummins only.
