    Hey everyone. I have a 2019 4Runner and when I start the car the wipers wont turn off. Then they might stop eventually or turn again randomly.
    And the wiper fluid will not spray.
    I have checked the fuse.
    I have disconnected the battery to reset.
    I have replaced the entire Wiper Switch unit at well and nothing has worked so far.
    Any ideas?
    Before I take it to the dealer and open my wallet lol.
    Thanks!

    More than likely the wiper motor “park” switch has failed or the wiper relay is stuck.

    When that happens on a stuck or shorted relay it will make the wipers never go off. It’s 1 of the 2.

    or obviously it could be a short to power in the harness somewhere

    I’d check relay, and then wiper motor power and see what you got there. Are you handy with a volt meter

    Thank you for the advice! I will continue to check those two off the list.
