Subject:Programmable Intermittent Wiper Relay
From:Wes Neuenschwander
Date:Tue, 25 Aug 1998 07:14:49 8

The intermittent position on the windshield wiper control switch has gone
on the blink and rather than deal with the ordeal of replacing it
(disassembling the steering column, replacing shear bolts, etc.) I thought
I'd explore the possibility of just replacing the standard wiper control
relay with a programmable intermittent relay.  The big question, of
course, is whether these will work *without* the fourth (intermittent)
position on the wiper switch functioning.  (Or is there a way of modifying
the wiring, e.g. paralleling the low/on wiring with the intermittent
circuit?)

Also would be interested in where to get such a device.
