95 GC wipers stuck
Hi,
During the snow the other day, my wipers were frozen in the park
position. Without realizing, I left the switch on low. After a little
while the wipers broke free, did half a cycle and stopped again. I
thought they re-froze at the mid-point, but a little push on each arm
showed neither arm was actually frozen. I give them a little harder
push at which point they started working. Now they won't stop running
on low
Help!!!!
Any thought as to whether it's the switch, the control module or the
park switch?
Thanks

Re: 95 GC wipers stuck
I would guess that you need a new wiper switch which is the whole turn
signal arm. Mine went the same way on my '95 ZJ...I was too lazy to wipe the
snow off the windshield and just turned the wipers on but the snow was just
to wet and heavy...my wipers no longer park themselves and have to be shut
off manually as well as I lost my intermitent wiper.
Good luck!

Re: 95 GC wipers stuck
i would bet you broke the park switch and that is in the motor so you will need
a new wiper motor

Thanks for your feedback
Does anyone have a pinout and make/break contact info for this switch?
I pulled the switch out and according to the Haynes manual, it checked
OK, but wire color was different which leads me to believe the book
might not be entirely accurate.
I also pulled the wiper motor / tranny assy to check the park switch,
which again appeared OK, but same problem. It didn't match the book
exactly.
Also does anyuone know where the variable speed wiper module is
located?

might not be entirely accurate.
I also pulled the wiper motor / tranny assy to check the park switch,
which again appeared OK, but same problem. It didn't match the book
exactly.
Also does anyuone know where the variable speed wiper module is
located?
