Hi all,
I have a 2021 CX-5. Just today, the windshield wipers won't turn off. I turned the car on and they immediately started working, despite no rain. After a few moments, I turned the car off and back on and that didn't help. I made sure that the stalk is in the off position and that didn't do anything. They increased speed when I turned it to the high position but didn't stop back in off. I tried a "wiper reset" that I found online and I think that helped (turn car off, wiper stalk up twice, ignition on without foot on gas, wiper stalk up one more time, then turn car on). But when I turn the wipers on they won't turn off again.
Is this a bad relay switch? Or a bad motor? Is there an easy way to replace it? I start medical school in a few months and can't really afford to spend $400 at the dealer for them to fix it.
