Fed up with this LR (summat every day) Now mi wipers park where they want as I switch them off intermittent is no more, just keeps wiping. Def 110 Hi Cap Lost my rave cd so cant look owt up. Is it a relay job or new motor? Cant seem to catch switcing off at bottom o screen. That's what is annoying, other than that I could put up with it. Love it really !!! Stu

It'll be the self-park switch in the motor. I've had one do that occasionally. If it doesn't fix itself you can do a temporary fix by disconnecting the self-park feed from the motor, at the cost of having to park the wipers by hand as in the old days...
Sounds like a switch problem to me as you have two problems - not parking and no intermittent!
Definately the park switch.

Agreed. I bought a new motor but was able to fix the original one by drilling out the rivets that hold the wiper gearbox together and cleaning up the self park switch parts, re-grease with vaseline and reassemble with nuts and bolts. It's lasted the winter. Disco 1 btw. Cheers Graham
