[Shop-talk] wiper intermittent either too fast or too slow jeep tj

[Pat Horne]

P J, does your wiper switch behave the same as Moose’s? If it does, his isn’t misbehaving. 

As an electronics guy if I had access to the vehicle I’d do some testing & try some modifications to make it work more as desired. I’ll see if I can find a wiring diagram for that & see if anything can be done. 

Peace,
Pat

I have a 2003 TJ as well. I can say that the whole turn signal/wiper/headlight assembly on the steering column is a problem with these cars I believe. The previous owner replaced it once, and I have as well. Something to consider.

I know this isn't a British car, but at least it's shop related.  8>) 

I have a 2003 Jeep TJ.  Wipers work 100% EXCEPT that the intermittent feature seems a little weird. 

It works as it is supposed to, however there is a gap with the speed.  There are about 5 clicks in the intermittent adjustment. 

1 is really slow 
2 is slightly faster, but not much. 
3 is basically constant wiping 
4 & 5 are just faster constant modes 

Overall 2 is WAY too slow and 3 is too fast.  I need something in between. 

Seems that most searching on this for make/model is them not working at all and not the problem I'm having.   

Anyone have an ideas what to check? 

TIA 

Moose
