    Ladies and Gents! Over the last two years or so I've been having issues with the rear wiper not returning to all the way "home" after use. It would get close but not quite. But now, once I turn off the wiper from the steering column it stops exactly where it is, and if I try to time it to stop at the start of it's arc, it never fully returns home. Thoughts? I haven't found any instances of this on the inter-webs. In the pic, the rear window is down, but that's actually working perfectly from the interior switch as well as the key switch on the tail gate.IMG_2338.jpg

    Thanks!

    I'm not sure if you use your wiper but I disabled my wiper since I don't use it. I just unplugged it from the motor and put a jumper between the blue and green wire. Then you can order and a deleting plug and cap off where the wiper goes.

    I'll have a nice long chat with myself lol. I actually talk to myself all the time and answer myself:confused: . You should see how people look at me in the shop when I'm trying to diagnose something, but hey, it helps my brain figure out problems!
