Windshield Wiper Issue

[Trail_Rider]

I'm having a weird issue with my windshield wipers, sometimes they just won't turn off and are stuck in the longest (time wise) intermittent setting when in the off position.

Sometimes turning them on and off a few times cures the problem, but I was curious if anyone else has experienced this and is there a quick fix instead of visit to the dealer.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Bill

clock spring or switch would be my guess

Any idea how to fix it? I'm just try to avoid going down to the dealer, it's more of time issue than anything else.

Thanks

pull the steering wheel and airbag. better to have the dealer do it since it most likely would be under warranty. i replaced them in a toyota before, but not a ford. it was still a pain in the ass.

Don't some vehicles have the circuit board built into the wiper motor? Have seen it, not sure about where ours are?

Ok, thanks. It's definitely covered under warranty, I was just hoping it might be something easy fix.

Thanks again.

I would just take it to the dealership down the street. It's probably an easy fix, but unless your willing to rip your steering wheel apart, just let them do it. I use Wall's Ford in Salisbury, they've been pretty good.

Hi Bill,

Are you going to head in to the dealer soon and have this repaired? What's the current mileage on your truck? I'm just a few clicks away if you need my assistance.

I'm sure you'll be in great hands at the dealer, Bill. Come back and tell us how your appointment goes; I'll be able to step in and help once they've looked things over.
