  • mike norris May 24, 2013

    That's what I thought might be wrong. I replaced the wiper controls on the steering column and had no results. All wiring seems to be in good shape. Thanks for the help.

Why wont my mercury sables windshield wipers park right?

Many Ford products had problems with this, it is the wiper motor.
Replacing the motor is the only way to fix it, because the "park" position is built into the motor.
Be blessed.

My 2002 tbird won't get out ofnpark

If you cannot move the gearshift lever out of P (Park) with ignition in
the RUN position and the brake pedal depressed:
1. Apply the parking brake, turn ignition key to LOCK, then remove the
key.
2. Insert the key and turn it to OFF. Apply the brake pedal and shift to N
(Neutral). This allows the automatic transmission shift lever to be
moved from the P (Park) position without the brake pedal
depressed.
3. Start the vehicle.
If it is necessary to use the above procedure to move the gearshift lever,
it is possible that a fuse has blown or the vehicle's brakelamps are not
operating properly.

Front wippers won't return to off position when turned off

The are contacts inside the motor assembly which are supposed to keep the motor running until the blades are parked; if the motor's just stopping in position wherever you turn the *wipers* off, there's a problem in the motor. If the problem is that the wipers don't park when you turn the *ignition* off, that's normal behavior. While it's theoretically possible to rewire the motor so that they'll auto-park when you turn the engine off, it's more complicated than just swapping a couple of leads, and requires adding some additional parts to the circuit; do it wrong, and the *engine* will keep running instead.

Wipers do not work in intermittent position. They do work in low and high speeds but do not automatically return to the park position. They stop wherever you turn the switch off.

i belive that your wiper switch has gone out on the intermittent side. this is a very common problem.
I hope this helps you
Thanks
