Subject:Re: Wiper turning on by themselves - Any ideas how to fix?

It's hard to see why a bad parking circuit would involve any delay.  Tho
I have to admit the Bentley circuit diagram is "challenging".
   When it goes into this independent mode, does it run on high, low ,
or intermittent?

I think that before I tore up the dash, I would try to install an extra
switch to stop it.
