Title: Is it normal?
Post by: can machine on May 16, 2007, 07:18:33 am
When I start my car the wipers make one sweep across the windshield. Is that normal?

For some people, yes.   ;)

Most common causes are failed capacitors in the wiper delay module, or a bad switch in the column.

  Ah, the phantom wipe. My first Fiero did that every so often.   Kevin

Assuming it's not you don't do it.
