Thank you for reading my question.

ANSWER: first check all fuses in and out of car-wiggle key and see if air comes on if so probably bad ignition switch-not key and lock cylinder but switch

QUESTION: Thanks but it didnt work The wipers are stuck on. They will only stop if the fuse is removed (this also kills the heater and air conditioner).have any idea.thanks for your quick response.

Answer
i do not see in the wiring diagrams where these two circuits would interact with each other so they must be feeding back through a circuit or bad ground-if  you don't visually see anything take it to a garage and have it checked out be  sure and tell them what happened. good luck.
