[Tigers] Fwd: Wiper Question

[Joe Brown]

Well,  I found the "stop" wire and it appears to be intact.  I can turn on
the wipers and wiggle the wire and the wipers still work.  With the wiper
switch off I can wiggle the wire and nothing happens.  So I guess the
problem could be inside of the wiper motor?

Thanks,
Joe Brown

Update:  I found a color version of the wiring diagram and it helped me
find the purple/white wire.  It is for the door switches that turn on an
interior light on GT models.

Hi,

I got caught out in the rain yesterday and had to use the wipers.
Everything worked fine at first; I could turn them on and off as needed.
But then it got where the wipers would not turn off.  With the switch in
the off position the wipers seem to go into a third, slower speed. Kind of
like the intermittent setting on modern cars.  I actually like this speed
because it was just lightly misting .   After several minutes they would
eventually stop.  And then occasionally it would start up again on its own.

 I found a similar issue on the SAOCA website and the answer was related to
a "stop wire".  Can somebody tell me where to find that wire?  I've looked
all around the wiper motor but can't seem to find it.

Another question: While looking at the wires going to the wiper motor I
noticed a wire coming out of the wiring harness right next to the wiper
wires that is not hooked up to anything.  It is purple with a white stripe
and there is nothing anywhere close to it that it would hook up to.  I've
looked at the wiring diagram and can't find a match.  See the photo below.

Can anybody tell me what that purple/white wire would go to?

Thanks,
Joe Brown
