Well,
My wipers just didn't work yesterday......I tried and tried...no 1st or 2nd speed....but when I push the switch in in a tiny frustrated fit....they worked!!! So I know the motor aint burnt, I think my switch is fritzed. Gonna replace it. That was not the end of my wiper problem.....later that evening after a frat event it came pouring down like noones business. DAMNIT!!!!! So all the way back to our meeting which was a long dark winding trip, I was holding in the wiper button so my wipers could help me on the road. And a few hours later it really came down and roads started closing cause a near by river was up to its banks,,,so I had to go all the way around to get back to my place...but the wipers started working like normal. Hmm....still gonna replace the switch.
Thats about it.

Put some Rain-X on it. That will help out tremendously. And I would definately replace the switch.

Mine are doing the exact same thing. I bought a switch from ZOOMY, but I haven't installed it. Just using the manual wiper interval technique......push.......push.......
