What to Do When the Windshield Wipers Won't Stop?

[DeArianna]

Here are the solutions for windshield wipers that won't stop: 1. If the wipers keep running non-stop, it is likely due to a fault in the wiper motor's wiring. You can disconnect the negative terminal of the battery to stop the wipers; 2. Then, without activating the wiper lever, drive the car to a repair shop or a 4S store for a professional to check the wiring issues. Precautions for using windshield wipers are as follows: 1. Always use them when there is rain: As the name suggests, wiper blades are meant to clean rainwater off the windshield. Do not use them when there is no rain, and never operate them dry. The increased friction from dry operation can damage the rubber blades and the wiper motor. 2. Even when it's raining, avoid using the wipers if the rain is not heavy enough to require them. Wait until there is sufficient rainwater on the windshield. 'Sufficient' here means enough rain to not obstruct the driver's view.
