Default Windshield wiper problem

I am having a problem with my windshield wipers. They always work at the fastest speed but usually won’t work at the slower speed, delay, or mist modes and they stop wherever they are on the windshield and don’t park at the bottom of the windshield when turned off. The dealer has replaced the wiper motor and the fuse block in the engine compartment but the wipes still don’t work properly. Anybody have the same problem or any suggestions on how to fix it?

Not here just a crank bolt.

Default Wiper problems

Just got my machine silver mn6, have used the wipers twice and have blown the fuse twice. Taking car in to dealer this Friday and will let you know what they find out. They work for about 5 min and then freeze on the windshield.

When the wipers stop, but don't park, disconnect the wiper switch. The connector should be underneath the steering column if it's anything like the C5. If they park when you disconnect it, then your switch needs replacement.

Also, check the wires for a short to ground. (If it's the same as the C5, then the Yellow wire is hot in ACC/On and the Grey, Dark green, and Purple wires are the ones you'd check for the short. Ignore the Pink wire, it would be for the washer.)
