Windshield Wiper Timing Is Screwed Up
This past weekend i had to unhook the negative battery post in order to put on a CAI, and ever since the windshield wipers timing is screwed right up....LOL.....it stops in the middle and it won't shut off sometimes.....Anybody know how to cure this?????
The intermittent works if you leave it, but when you go to mist it goes for like 20 wipes......
Any suggestions?

Had the exact same issues this past January. Turned out I needed the wiper motors replaced. Took them 2 weeks to get the part in, and only an hour or so to swap out.
It's apparently a known, documented problem.

yup, if your car is under warranty still, take it in and tell them the problem and that there is an acura service recall on it. they'll be able to look it up and tell you if you're covered. just got my RDX back with the wiper motor replaced.

Wiper Switch?
I had something similar where the windshield wipers would go crazy time to time. Ex. on lowest setting, it would speed up a couple of times, then slow down. When turned off during this, it would keep going, so I would have to play around with it.
Dealer suggests it might be wiper switch.
Is there an easy wiper switch diy that someone knows of?
Anyone else experience the possessed, crazy windshield wipers?

What is TB?
I bought my car in 2008 so it is out of warranty now.
It is a 2008 Acura RDX.
I read other places that it may be a wiper switch, and some say it's the wiper motor.
A lot of people seems to have this problem, but no forum yet on a DIY wiper switch replacement yet...
