By mrcell
- Thu Feb 06, 2014 1:21 pm #342268 so i bought a new wiper combo switch to fix my old one where the intermittent setting wouldn't work and the sprayers wouldn't work. when i installed it , the pull down so the wipers do one pass began to work, but the misters and intermittent setting still wouldn't work. does anyone know how to fix this or what the problem is?

Since you already replaced the switch and they work on low/high, that eliminates the wiper motor assembly. Next, I'd look into the intermittent wiper relay circuit (in integrated control unit located on driver fuse panel). Inspect Blue/Green, Blue/White and/or Yellow/Blue wires for open circuit. Check for loose or disconnected terminals.

To test the washer motor: Remove front bumper and disconnect washer motor 2-pin connector. Connect battery voltage across washer motor terminals. Washer motor should operate smoothly. If motor runs smoothly but little or no washer fluid is pumped, check for disconnected or blocked washer fluid hose or a clogged pump outlet in motor.
