Re: [FWDLK] wiper question

[Terry & Andree Hoeman <tehoema@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've never had a car with electric wipers which didn't park itself---when
working correctly.  Earliest which I have are 49 Chryslers.

Something in the switch mechanisms which goes bad as time goes on.   Never
had one bad enough to get me to try to fix it.   Did just change the motor
and switch assy out on one 55 Chrysler though.
