Ok i have a 2001 Lumina wipers started going up and down only 3 inches on high, I have replaced the wiper motor, wiper control motor, wiper switch, and even the handle that u turn and i still have the same problem, I replaced the motor twice hoping i got a bad motor but thta wasnt the case. If anyone can be of help i would greatly appreciate it

Welcom to AF. How about the control circuit board? This is on high only?, also check all the grounds.

Ended up replacing the circuit boards and a dealer motor and that did the trick, aftermarket motor wasnt makin contact with the circuit board, but now the low, high, and mist works but i have no delays. Anyone have any suggestions on why the delay is not working now

Again the circuit board is part of the delay control, also the stalk of course.

If the stalk still has the "clicks" working it is probably ok. I find that most aftermarket parts generally are crap, stick with GM/Delco parts wherever possible. I'm going through my 2nd Napa washer/control unit now and will at least try to replace it with an Aamco or Trico unit.

I went through 3 wiper motors on my 96 Lumina, I think the trick is to not tighten any thing down to tight that may cause the motor to bind up. on my third replacement I made sure the bolts were barley tighten and it has worked now for 2 years.
