Wipers work.....sometimes, and sometimes not
On my 08 Z06, the windshield wipers work when they want to. Sometimes, every mode works fine, but at other times they stop when they want to. There doesn't seem to be a specific setting that does it more or less than others, it seems to be a common problem thruout the settings. I pulled 2 fuses inside the car, and 2 under the hood, and they look good. They are at least 4 relays under the hood, but I don't think it is one of those because the problem happens in all positions. I am stumped. Any one have this problem?
I posted this previously, and am just checking one more time before the dealer sees my smiling face and wallet. Thanks.

Faulty electrical connections or wiring may be the cause of intermittent conditions.
Here is the service manual section on the wiper-washer system. It may help you with schematics, troubleshhoting etc.
Good Luck

Still have the no work sometimes, wiper problem. Thought I would check ground(s) first.
Does anyone know where these mothers might be located?
Thanks,
Tom
