My windshield Wipers won't turn off! Options

[Mannyrav]

My windshield wipers won't turn off..lol. As you know we've been getting some pretty bad weather here in south florida because of that tropical storm, but when the rain stopped, my windshield wipers wouldn't turn off!

I'm sure you know how the original setup goes..

In the stick there's four levels:
1st- off
2nd- slow speed
3rd- medium speed
4th- fast speed

But as of last night my car's been doing this:
1st- medium speed
2nd-medium speed
3rd- medium speed
4th- fast speed

Don't know how to fix this lol..Could anyone help?

lol... this happened to me also. When I first got my car, I took it through an automated car wash and halfway through the carwash the wipers turned on and stayed on! I had water coming in on the passenger side floorboard. I think the water came in and shorted some wires. I pulled the wiper fuse and waited a few hours. when it was dry, the wipers were back to normal. I think the high pressure water came into the car through the vent in front of the windshield. It doesn't do it when it rains, just when high pressure water is applied.

I had the same problem on my bmw, i could never figure it out, so i pulled the fuse from under the hood and put it back in when it would rain it sucked
