Default Another "My wipers won't stop / park" thread!

Hi everyone ,

I searched and read through the threads a couple weeks ago when I got my C5. I bought a remanufactured wiper motor from Advance Auto. It worked great for 2 weeks, I just went out and fired it up... Wipers are running on delay! Did I get a bad remanufactured motor, or is there something else to check? I did clean out the drains. Also, the washer motor is not running...

Any help would be appreciated!

I had to replace a modulator for mine because the would not stop running.. I believe it's down there near the windshield wiper motor.. Hope this helps you..

Thanks, I think you're referring to the pulse board module which is attached to the wiper motor. Unfortunately both were replaced as 1 unit. I think I'm going to need to pull it out and go swap it for another new one.
