Ghost Wipers

[Clart]

My wipers came on yesterday for no apparent reason and I couldnt turn them off!!! Any ideas?

Also i think the heater fooked - blows cold air in even when the cars warmed up AND the rear windows heater thing does nowt. What could be wrong and how much 2 fix? I remember someone saying that heater matrix was £200.

Hmmm, maybe your ECU has gone nuts since they control things like wipers etc

if i had my wipers on for more than 20mins in my old RT they wouldnt turn off. And my heater in my new valver aint v hot. Theremostat change made it a lot better but its still only just warm. is your water temp going up at all?

Sounds like it might be a dodgy earth. Possibly some damp getting into the cicuit somewhere and shorting, causing the wipers to come on.
