Rear windshield wipers won't turn off 200 1986

posted by  someone claiming to be patob on  Mon Oct 6 08:56 CST 2008 [RELATED]

The switch on the stalk for the intermitant/off/high settings on the rear windshield wiper has been touchy for a while. It was hard to get it in the off position. Saturday I was driving back and the wiper was on full speed. I tried to turn it off and couldn't. I figured the switch had died. I later disconneted the wires to the switch and removed it and it kept running. Removing the fuse would kill it, but the radio also. I finally disconnected the wiring by the rear hatch. I am stumped. All ideas appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Pat

Thanks for the advice. I was starting to think relay. Volvo seems to have one for everything. Where is it located. Thanks again
