Question Wipers wont stop moving on my 98 civic ex

Hey my wipers wont stop wiping on my car when I turn them off. Was wondering if anyone had an idea why they were doing this or how to fix it?


Thanks

Re: Wipers wont stop moving on my 98 civic ex

Possibly something to do with the park switch/circuit ?? The park switch allows the wipers to "park" at the stop position when the wipers are turned off mid cycle. (assuming they run at low speed constant and high speed when switched to high??)

Do you have the free factory manual PDF that is available ??

From the sound of things it does sound like a park switch gone bad. Get it checked out and let us know. Best of luck!
