Windshield wipers problem

What happens if you mist it again, would it go down to the right position the 2nd time?

 

Sometimes that happens to my 2010, but I just do it again and it'll go back down to normal. I don't know how to fix it, and probably wouldn't want to spend money to fix it either.

 

I would personally think it's in the switch I don't think the motor doesn't anything but actually have the two speeds all the delaying and returning and whatnot is in the controller on the stock I believe I think other cars of mine are the same way too

 

As a matter of fact just recently I changed the wiper motor on a 2010 2011 for a part that came off of a 2015 and then I took the 2010 motor apart to look inside of it and it was just worn out and it was a pretty dumb setup in other words just to two speeds and not much else in there

 

I think that would be unusual. The delaying can be done in the stalk switch (or in some separate box in some cars), but the detection of the return position pretty much always involves a switch that's built into the motor/gearbox ... because it has to know when the wipers are at the return position, and the stalk switch doesn't.



As the diagram shows, the motor assembly includes the low and high speed windings, two capacitors, a circuit breaker, and the little cam-operated return-position-detect switch over at the right.

If that switch gets worn out and moves away from the upper contact early (or the contact is bad there), the wipers will stop early.
