Motor for some reason lost the park stop. There is a spot in the
lower travel that sends a ground back to the wiper controller.
Dunno exactly how your unit works but in my old C-10 there
was a ground strap through one of the bolts. It was corroded
and that prevented the park from working. I'd start with checking
the motor connection.

Can you unhook the control from the motor?
If it still happens when unhooked it's the motor
My guess would be the control as the motor is working if you have both
speeds

Anybody have this problem before? I cannot turn off the wipers on my 97
Wrangler. I can switch between the hi and low settings but when the switch
is set to off they just keep going. I can't decide if it's the motor or the
control..

Re: Wipers always on
It has to be the control, there is no way the motor can run if the control
is working.
The Combo Switch is broken internally. You should be able to feel it not
working right.
