Most
likely it is the park switch cam switch inside the motor not making contact
anymore, can probably be fixed by disassembly by someone like JC . I
doubt it is the dash switch, but could be that or the park wire itself . Those
latter things do not just up and fail, in general, but park switches in
the motor do....by wearing out. I do not know E specifically but other
MOPARS doing that . An
experienced auto electrician using E manual (print of wiper wiring setup) can
jump the switch at the motor first with dash switch in off position ; if it parks,
/ moves then it is the internal switch. Maybe you can find whole motor somewhere... Park
switch supplies power to motor when turned off, via P ark wire from
switch on dash ( can get complicated at switch as it has to go to slow speed
too) ; then motor runs through that park switch alone, until a cam opens
it up when blades are full down, stopping it in park. If it wears , it might
not connect , so motor just sits there . Of course if wire is broken or dash
switch, same thing but much less likely . my
.02, hope it helps... john From:

Last
fall when I put the E away, I noticed that the windshield wiper
"return" did not work. Is this due to corrosion that might be
corrected by spraying some compound onto the switch? Any other
suggestions are welcome. Regards, Al

[kboonstra@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Here's a trivia question for a C. The oil filler
cap on my C is one of those that has "OIL" stamped on it
right-side-up and upside-down. The word is actually stamped from the underside
so it stands proud of the surface. In my recollection this is the correct and
original cap for the car. If you don't do something dumb,
you may never need a new one. But I did and I do, and I want to get the proper
one to replace it. Can others of you let me know whether this is the right cap
or not? Thanks. Keith Boonstra
