So, I'm working my way through the ....interesting... wiring repairs that have been done on my Charger prior to owning it. Wirenuts have NO place on an automobile....
I recently had the cluster out to replace bulbs and bypass the dead dash dimmer switch, and the wiring on the back of the wiper switch looked correct (and I don't think the dash had ever been out before I took it apart).
I know stuff under the hood has been monkeyed with, and the wiper motor looks new(er). When I turn on the wiper switch, the wipers are simply....ON. At a fairly fast rate. No change when using different switch positions.
Is it possible it has a standard motor, even though the car has a 3 speed system? Or am I looking at some other issue somewhere (mis-repaired wiring, etc)?
I don't plan on driving it in the rain much if I can help it, but I still like it when stuff works...
