What to Do When the Windshield Wiper Won't Stop?
1 Answers
Here are the solutions for a windshield wiper that won't stop: 1. If the wiper keeps running non-stop, it is likely due to a fault in the wiper motor circuit. You can disconnect the negative terminal of the battery to stop the wiper. 2. Without activating the wiper handle, drive the car to a repair shop or 4S store and have a technician check the circuit issues. Below are precautions for using windshield wipers: 1. Always use the wipers when there is rain, as the wiper blades are designed to clear rainwater from the windshield. Do not use them without water, and never operate them dry. Running the wipers without water increases friction, which can damage the rubber blades and the wiper motor. 2. Even if it's raining, avoid using the wipers if the rain isn't heavy enough to require them. Wait until there is enough rainwater on the windshield—enough to prevent obstructing the driver's view.
