How to Stop the Car Wiper?

[DelCarson]

To stop the car wiper, follow these steps: 1. The wiper switch is controlled by the wiper lever located on the lower right side of the steering wheel. It is a black lever switch. Push it upward and hold to activate the wiper, which will also spray windshield washer fluid. 2. Release the lever to stop the wiper and the washer fluid spray. 3. Moving the lever forward or backward adjusts the wiper speed, which can be selected based on the intensity of the rain. The rear wiper switch is also located on the wiper lever, but it is a separate system from the front wiper and can be controlled independently. There are two types of rear wiper switches: lever-style and knob-style.

I remember driving all these years, it's a bit annoying when the wipers won't stop. The most common way is to turn the control stalk on the right side of the steering wheel and move it to the OFF or bottom position to stop them. If they keep moving back and forth in the intermittent mode, make sure to turn it off firmly; some cars may require pressing a button. Don't ignore the reasons: sometimes the switch is stuck, the motor is faulty, or the wiring is loose. If you can't stop them while driving, pull over to a safe place and check, don't push it. Regular maintenance to check the wiper arms and linkages for rust can prevent trouble on the road.

When I first started driving, I was always confused about how to turn off the windshield wipers. Simply put, you operate the small lever behind the steering wheel—turn it to the off symbol to stop them; if it's a button-style car, pressing it does the same thing. Don't panic and operate it hastily on highways or in heavy rain—just try a few times to get familiar with it. If there's no response, try restarting the system after turning off the engine. For safety, if the wipers won't stop, slow down and pull over to prevent them from obstructing your view and avoid accidents.

Unstoppable wipers are dangerous, especially when driving in the rain. Simply turn the control lever to turn them off, but if they malfunction, don't slam on the brakes: first reduce your speed, pull over, and check. Possible causes include a faulty switch or a stuck wiper arm. Get it fixed promptly to avoid hazards. I recommend regularly wiping the wiper blades and cleaning dust off the windshield to extend their lifespan and reduce mid-drive failures.

I often repair my car by myself. To stop the wipers, simply move the control lever to the OFF position. If they get stuck and won't stop, manually lift the wipers to temporarily stop them; check if the switch wires are detached or if there's any foreign object blocking them. After cleaning the connection points between the wiper arm and the motor, try again—this issue is often caused by dust buildup or aging. Regularly inspect the connecting parts in the garage to avoid problems on the road.
