Hello!
I just got back from a 300 mile trip (more details on that in a day or two), and the truck did quite well overall. I did run into one problem, though. It started raining during the trip, and I went to turn the windshield wipers on...and they didn't come on. I turned the knob to "fast", and they finally went...but they hesitated before starting each cycle. After that, the wipers continued to do this erratically...sometimes, they'd work normally, sometimes I would have the hesitating problem (every time this happened, they wouldn't work at all in LOW) with the time varying, and sometimes they simply wouldn't come on at all. Fortunately, the rain wasn't so bad that this became a safety issue, although it got close a couple of times. Fortunately, I got over the Grapevine before things got bad
I replaced the intermittent wiper module recently, but I can't imagine how that would affect this...does anyone have any ideas? I'm guessing the motor's on its way out, but I've never needed to mess with a wiper system before, so I know next to nothing about them...
Thanks!
