Specifics on Programmable Wiper Relay? 850

I installed an IPD relay and I am thinking of putting the original back in. Why? Because once I set the interval, I find it very difficult to change the interval if the rain intensity changes. Most of the time, the delay will become less than 1 second, when I wanted less than 30 seconds.

In other words, it can be a pain! When the interval should be every 30 seconds or so, instead of the OEM 7 seconds, I just push the wiper stalk down for a single wipe. When I get tired of manually wiping, it usually means that the 7 second interval is good.

If you want, I can climb under the steering wheel (not fun) and get the IPD relay out to ship to you. I was thinking of just leaving the OEM with the V70R when I sell it.
