Hi Sloop

Everything worked out fine...the only change I would add is ..take out the drivers seat and add a couple pillows for those times when you have to lie on your back.
This was originally diagnosed to be a bad wiper motor and then with the help of
the forum turned out to be a wiper switch problem..
Thanks a lot this saved My friend a good amount of money,,!

No.... Not Yet
I've learned to live with it, you can only start it if you know how, so no one can steal it
One of these days I'll get the ***** to tackle it (lol)
It throws erratic codes sometimes but the way I understand it, it's due to voltage from the switch/ignition. Haven't had any problems but I know I'm driving on borrowed time.
