Where is the wiper motor relay located on a 1999 corvette. Wipers are coming on when they want and I have already changed the motor

The only way to turn them off is to pull the fuse. The motor was bad due to moisture so I replaced it and now um thinking it's either the relay or switch

That should be in you user manual.

Testimonial: "It's not in the manual. Not sure if there is a relay at all May be just a fuse."

SOURCE: Windshield wipers will not turn off - 2003 Chevrolet Silverado

Fixed the wiper problem which was identical to Brad's by changing out the wiper module which is also called a pulse module or something of that nature. Pretty easy fix. You have to remove the grill that the wiper blades protrudes from in order to get to the motor (4 clips in front which can be removed by hand, remove radio antenna, a center push down retainer, two plastic end caps which pop off and then 1 star type screw on each end under the end caps). Getting the blades off seemed difficult. I used a small puller to pop them off after removing the nuts.

You can't buy this module at a regular parts store. I had to get it from the dealer so be prepared to spend $130 to $140 for the part or go to the salvage yard. Works great now.

SOURCE: windshield wipers quit working on 2003 chevrolet trailblazer. relays and fuses are okay.

There were some issues with ignition switches in those vehicles.It is easy to change and does not cost but about $30. Remove the column covers, unplug the switch, and depress the 2 white tabs holding it in place. Good Luck

The wipers are controlled by a central computer called the BCM, you must have that tested to see what fault codes are in memory of the module, this is the first step.

Wipers will not come on 1985 corvette

Most systems work like this, in any vehicle. You have a switch to turn it on. You have a relay that is energized by the switch. The relay supplies power to the windshield wiper motor when energized. So to troubleshoot you check to see if there is power in the motor terminals . No power there, check the relay to see if it has been energized. If there is power to the relay, no power to the motor, you have a bad relay. If the relay is not receiving power to the coil, then check your switch. You need a voltmeter, Radio Shack has them for very little money.
Hope that helps.

My wipers turn off and on by theirself the switch has no control over it. I have replaced the wiper motor twice and that doesn't help what can be wrong ? It is a 1998 corvette

The problem is not the motor it is the switch it is grounding out and causing the wipers to come on bypassing the switch control.

I changed the relay fuse to my windshield wipers and the knob and my wipers still wont work on my 98 plymoth grand voyager what should i check

Turn wipers on (veh in "on" or "acc" position)
Disconnect the electrical connection at the windshield wiper motor (located in the engine compartment on the fire wall) and check for voltage. If you have voltage, there is a good possibility your windshield wiper motor is bad.
You may also: Disconnect the electrical connection at the windshield motor and run a heavy gauge wire directly from the positive side of the battery to the motor. If you get the windshield motor to come on. There may be only a wiring (short) problem between the relay and the motor.

Windshield wipers not working on 71 Corvette

Check for power at the wiper motor. The door is vacuum operated the wiper motor is electric. If there is power present the motor is bad, if not check the fuse, and then check the wiper switch. My guess is that the wiper motor is bad.

Wipers wont shut off

Check to make sure you are getting power to the wiper motors. Also check relay. Either one could be bad.

Wipers only work on occasion

If the 1991 is anything like th 1969 to 1982, the ground is open under the dash at the wiper switch. Check for the ground at the wiper motor when the wipers decide not to work. Grounding is problematic on a fiberglass bodied vehicle. Hope this is of help.
