What is the Intermittent Wiper Relay all about?

In the distant past, windshield wiper operation had only 2 functions: on and off. Over time, car manufacturers introduced low, medium and high speeds, and eventually added intermittent wiper functionality. These series of developments provided drivers with a wider range of speeds for varying levels of precipitation.

This functionality relies on a component called a relay – the same technology that powers your fuel pump and keeps your car’s computer running. The relay uses electrical resistance relative to the position set on the wiper control arm to determine the specific speed at which the wipers move.

Because the intermittent wiper relay is electronic, it will inevitably fail and require replacement.

Keep in mind:

  • Intermittent wiper relay inspection is not part of most maintenance services.
  • Without the relay, your wipers will still work, but they will not offer variable speeds.

How it's done:

  • The intermittent wiper relay is verified it needs replacement
  • The defective intermittent wiper relay is removed
  • The new intermittent wiper relay is installed
  • The intermittent wiper relay is energized to turn it on
  • The wipers are tested to work properly in all control positions

Our recommendation:

Intermittent wiper operation isn’t required to drive your vehicle, and as long as your windshield wipers work, you’re legally permitted to drive while raining. However, lack of such an option can be a major inconvenience. If your wipers no longer work on the intermittent setting, a failed relay is likely the cause. Have it inspected by one of our expert mechanics and replaced if necessary.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Intermittent Wiper Relay?

  • Intermittent speed setting does not always work
  • Intermittent setting does not work at all

How important is this service?

Working wipers are required for safety on the road, but intermittent functionality is a convenience feature. However, it can be frustrating to constantly turn the wipers on and off to meet different rates of precipitation. Have the intermittent wiper relay replaced when it’s practical to do so.

Cadillac SRX V6-3.0L - Window is not going up or down - San Diego, California
Stephen's customer service is TOP NOTCH!! He called me the day before my scheduled appointment to ask questions about my repair because, he didn't want to repair the wrong thing. From this initial interaction with him, I got the sense that he is very thorough, cares about his work and wants to ensure that his customer is taken care of properly! He is Extremely friendly, kind and He took his time to explain the process to me so that I was able to understand and wouldn't feel left out. I'm 100% happy that I was able to have Stephen help me with my issue and I would 100% recommend him to anyone that needs help with their vehicle. I myself will definitely ask to have him service my car again!

Cadillac SRX V6-3.0L - Oil Change - Federal Way, Washington
Keven is an amazing detail-oriented mechanic!!! I was going to change my own oil for the first time, but didn't have ramps and oil pan yet, so I hired him to do it. Super nice guy, good conversation, and he let me watch him change it so I could do it myself next time. He answered all of my annoying questions without irritation. He even put in an engine air filter that I had purchased and planned on putting in myself that day, but while he was checking it, just popped my new one in himself. Very good customer service and I plan on having g him do more work on my car!!! Thanks Keven!!! 珞
