97 Bravada Winshield Wiper Problem

[DeeRider]

The other day I tried to wash my windows, no wipers, when I got home and parked in the driveway they worked fine. Then this morning it was drizzling outside so I put on my wipers to mist, too slow so I ttied to increase the speed. They want directly to ON and I could not get them to turn off. I tried parking, nothing, even turned the bravada off, when I restarted they continued to stay on. Finally after a few seconds they went off. I did not try them again till I got to work 20 mins later. of course the mister worked. Not sure what's wrong.

Anyone else have this problem or a solution.

More than likely the solder joints are broke on the pulse board. If they are broke, you can either resolder them or replace the board.

I have the exact same problem. The wipers work intermittently. I found that when I get out of the car and manually get the wipers started, they sometimes begin working, but yesterday while driving it started to rain and my wipers would not work. but when I got home and tried them again they worked. I could hear a sound like the windshield wiper motor but no wiper movement. I'm not a mechanic and I don't know much about wipers other than how to turn them on and off and how to change the blades.
