What is the reason for the continuous movement of the CRV wiper?

Honda CRV's continuous wiper movement caused by window tinting is due to water entering the wiper during the tinting process, leading to a faulty relay sending incorrect signals that cause the wiper to move non-stop. Below are the relevant solutions: 1. Solution: Locate and remove the wiper fuse in the Honda CRV, then wait for the relay to dry to resolve the uncontrolled wiper movement. Although car wipers may seem insignificant, they are a persistent feature in vehicles. Despite being small and not frequently used, wipers are very important. 2. Reason: The wiper is also a safety design. Despite being a simple component, the wiper has two control systems. One is a manual control system that allows the user to control the wiper's on/off switch and speed, but the wiper can also be activated in another way. The safety system can also trigger it to work. This is why the wiper automatically moves during traffic safety incidents.

As an experienced driver, I've also encountered the issue of the CR-V's wipers not stopping. It's mostly a problem with the switch part, such as worn contacts getting stuck in the on position. Or it could be that the relay, that little component, has aged, keeping the circuit continuously closed. If the car has an automatic wiper function, dirt or dust stuck on the rain sensor might make it mistakenly think it's still raining, causing the wipers to keep running. Once, my car had this exact issue after a car wash—the sensor wasn't wiped clean, and the wipers went crazy. I suggest you try switching between different wiper modes to see if it returns to normal; if not, promptly visit a repair shop to check the control module and wiring. Keeping the sensor area clean during regular use can prevent such faults, and don't forget to maintain the vehicle's electronic systems periodically.

With decades of car repair experience, I've encountered many cases of CR-V wipers running non-stop. Common causes include burnt internal components in the switch assembly causing contacts to stick and fail to disconnect, or sticky relay contacts leading to continuous power supply. Some models have frequent issues with rain-sensing systems, where the control module mistakenly responds to rainfall changes, causing constant movement. I recommend starting with simple self-checks: open the engine compartment fuse box to inspect if the wiper fuse is blown; twist the switch to check for looseness. Avoid disassembling complex circuits randomly - it's better to use professional equipment to test signals. This issue affects driving safety, so prompt repair is needed to prevent wiring harness damage. Regular checks for switch sticking in the wiper system can prevent minor issues from escalating.

When I first drove the CR-V, I was also startled by the continuous wiper movement. It might be due to the switch not being turned back to the 'off' position or a button malfunction. Another time, after rain, the sensor was dirty and triggered false alarms, causing it to keep moving. I suggest first trying to switch to the lowest setting or manually pressing the off button. If there's no response, then it's necessary to check for faults. New drivers with less experience shouldn't attempt to fix it themselves as it's easy to damage the circuitry. Stay focused on safe driving, pull over, and use your phone to search for nearby repair shops to handle the issue.
