Wipers have mind of their ownpokerdave 11-25-2008, 10:10 PM I have a 1990 GMC sierra 1500. The wipers come on when I need them to but for some reason they dont always shut off. I find it happens more often when there is only a fine mist. I will put them on delay and it switches to low speed on its own and even keeps running when I try and shut them off. What should I try first? Is it something I should just take it to the dealer for (Recall maybe that I didnt know about?) Thanks, Dave. 2000CAYukon 11-25-2008, 10:31 PM When this happened on my 90 K1500, I took the circuit board out, cleaned the connections really good, used some dielectric grease on them, put it back together and I never had the problem again. That was a couple of years ago. The circuit boards do go bad. No recall that I know about (original owner on my 90). Try cleaning the connectors first and go from there. //2000CAYukon p0peye_34 11-29-2008, 08:20 PM There's a recall on certain models. Stop by the dealer and see if yours is one. horse482 11-30-2008, 12:12 AM I have a '94 that had the same problem, went to the local auto parts and bought a new board, that fixed the problem. They are under $40 now. brcidd 11-30-2008, 12:22 AM I just re-heat the solder joints on the circuit board--that usually last about 4 years each time- but the price is right! jen6238 11-30-2008, 07:25 PM when this happened on the 1994 SLT sierra and the 2000 SLT sierra (crew) and the 2002 SLT sierra we replaced the little circuit board inside the wiper motor vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
