Subject: wiper failure
Greeting Healeyphiles,
While cruising along in a heavy rain in northern Vermont last weekend,
the wipers abruptly ceased moving. I pulled over and flicked the switch a
few
times with no response. I turned the switch off, reached behind the dash
and
wiggled the wires going to the switch with no response but left the switch
on. Moments later, the wipers suddenly started again. I drove 20 miles and
they ceased functioning again. I continued on in the rain without wipers
(very
little traffic) and after another 20 miles they suddenly started working
again. Could the problem be in the wiper motor or should I replace the
switch? TIA
Rich Antal
