so lately sometimes the wipers would just go from INT to low speed on their own and stay there and sooner or later go back to normal. they wont shut off or anything but go to high speed.

now the switch is completely useless for the front wipers. they wont turn off at all unless i prop the switch inbetween low and high and that only works till i hit a bump and it pops out.

i pulled the steering wheel and took a peak but didnt seem like any wires were fucked. or touching. maybe a sticking relay?

i reallly need to know how to fixs this.!

the switch is very simple device. the "handle" is fine. and the switch seems fine. ill have to yank it apart and see whats up. i dont see how it could just stay on. unless 2 wires are shorting out. but everything in the cluster seemed fine.

if the park switch sense circuit is out the car doesnt know when its actually suppose to turn the wipers off.

thinking about it though im not sure how it works on the mkiii.
