wiper issue
Wipers turn on but won't turn off and park. Turn off the ignition and they turn off and park. Also do not go into intermediate mode. Cleaned the contacts inside the black cover by the wiper motor and fixed for awhile and now not working. Cleaned again but no change. Any other ideas?
thanks in advance.
Forgot to mention that it the a 96 LT4

A workaround until you figure out if it's the park switch or the cover (the cover being pretty much unobtanium now) is to twist and hold the stalk into an ''in-between'' position until the wipers stop, which shoule be immediately, and then turn the stalk to the Off position to turn them off. They'll turn off and park that way.
That's on my '90 anyway. Don't have a '96...

My C4 is sugar, it melts in the rain, so it never sees any.
But seriously, I haven't messed with it but would like to reolve the problem for no other reason than I just want it to work correctly.
