Sounds like you have a problem with the parking pawl/position on the wiper motor.some of these can be repaired by a part from the dealer as its a dealer only part and sometimes the wiper motor needs replacing.if its a motor problem you can pick up one at the wreckers instead of buying a new one.

SOURCE: washer comes on when wipers

Should. It sounds like wiper switch w/delays/squirters, etc has a short in it and it's activating your washer pump in all positions.

First check your fuses (Manual should have that location for the window fuses). Also do the other windows go down on the other side with the switch on the drivers door? And what else doesn't work ( Mirrors, Locks )?

2007 Pontiac g6 wipers stay in upright position

Hey Derek , here is how the wipers park position is suppose to work !
Windshield wiper motor park operation is controlled by the body control module (BCM) using an input from the park switch within the wiper motor assembly. The BCM monitors the windshield wiper motor park switch circuit to determine if the windshield wiper blades are at the bottom of the glass. The circuit will be pulled to ground by the wiper motor park switch while the windshield wiper motor is operating. When the wiper switch is turned to the OFF position while the wiper motor is somewhere in mid-cycle, the BCM will continue to operate the motor until the wipers reach the park position. If the ignition is turned OFF while the wipers are in mid-cycle, the wipers will stop immediately where they are. The BCM will park the wipers the next time the ignition is turned ON.
The wipers will not park when they are commanded ON and OFF with a scan tool. The BCM will park the wipers the next time the wiper switch is turned ON and OFF.
The BCM provides stall protection for the wiper motor by monitoring the park switch. If the park switch does not transition for 3 seconds while the wipers are operating, the BCM will assume that the wiper motor is stalled, and will de-energize the wiper relay until the wiper switch is cycled OFF and ON again.
Check for a voltage signal on the yellow wire at the wiper motor assembly , this is signal to the BCM ! If there is no signal you need to replace the windshield wiper motor assembly ? If there is a signal need to have Tech 2 scan tool hooked up to see if The BCM is the problem ! Relay #39 an #40 are the high an low wiper relays in the under hood fuse block ! Do you have a volt meter ,do you know how to do electrical testing ?

Wiper's won't go off

the wiper motor has a relay circuit board in it. when it goes bad, the wipers will stay on or stop randomly in the middle of the windshield. You can replace this yourself if you have some tools and patience.

Windshield wipers won't cut off and I'm having trouble locating the fuse box to turn them off

The fuse panel is located behind the left hand side of the instrument panel. In your car, the Park switch appears to have failed ON it to park the wipers. the park switch is an integral part of the wiper motor assembly, so replacement would mean having to replace the wiper motor assembly as a unit ... good-day!!

Windshield wipers will not go off

There are slip rings in the wiper motor that should have a bare spot to stop them in the park position,if the wipers won't "park" then you need a new wiper motor because parts are'nt available to make the repairs to the motor it's self.
