[Shop-talk] Wiper delay fix

Friends,

Just a follow up on my jeep wiper delay issue.

I took the wiper 'whisker' (or stalk) off and took it apart (which was an 
ordeal itself).  The dial that sets the delay was a microchip, but I 
cleaned the variable resistor contacts.
That did nothing.  I purchased a new whisker and put it in. That fixed the 
problem.  It was clearly in the resistor/microchip part that was causing 
the issue.

I'm guessing part of the contact for the resistor might have been worn so 
it couldn't make complete contact.

If anyone has any ideas of 'experiments' to try on it, let me know.  I 
have the old one on the 'wall of shame' in the garage.

Thanks again for everyone that gave suggestions.
