Chevrolet Repair: Wiper problem, chevy silverado, speed work


Question
Hi Van,
I have a 2003 chevy silverado 4x4 automatic LS model.The wipers won't turn off.High and low speed work but the intermittent and off positions don't work. I know my dealer is going to need two visits to repair. Any idea what might be wrong?

P.S. A while back the wipers skipped once in a while but that seems to have stopped.
Thanks Paul  

Answer
Hi Paul,For years GM had problems with solder joints in the wiper module. Their fix was to replace the module with a new one....with bad solder joints.
You can search the web, or go to this forum, www.gmforums.com

and search for wiper problems.
You will love the forum page. All is free. There are tons of good topics, and this wiper problem is one of them.

PS...You can fix the problem yourself, a lot cheaper than paying the dealer, but you might ask them if it is under warranty, recall, or campaign.
