Hi everyone. My friend has a 2005 Acura CL and the windshield wipers arent working. Its weird cause the intermediate works but the other speeds doesnt... Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks..

 

My fathers Chevy Express Van has the same problem. I believe its the relay thats frupped up.

 

Do u know what exactly I need to ask for? or part #? How much am i looking at to get it replaced... thanks!

 

There is no such thing as a 2005 Acura CL. If its a TL then it might be worth a shot to ask it in the TL forums.

 

sorry i googled acura cl and it came up with this pic that says 2005. so.. i dont know what year.. but its this one:

damn i was gona say...2005 CL...thrid gen of CLz hhahah sweet...but no its most likely a TL...if its a 4 door then yes a TL...u should give them a shot...but if it was me i would say its probably a fuse bust.

 

ok thats a first gen 97-99 cl

 

definetly a 1st gen acura cl from 97-99

make sure all of the fuses are good under the hood and under the steering wheel. if you do believe its the relay then i have a spare one if you need to buy it. they usually run around 50-100 depending where u pick it up at. i also believe the 94-96 preludes have the same relay assembly only slightly different looking.

 

hmm very nice CL...yup def. 97-99..It could be a faulty switch or possibly a defective wiper motor. What happens is moisture works its way into the wiper module which is mounted to the motor and eventually will short out both parts. or its just a fuse bust

 

it cant be a fuse bust if the intermediate is still working right?

 

maybe the wiper switch is busted cause if your getting power and its working on low setting my guess is the switch

 

so its either the switch, the relay, the motor or the fuse.. dang.. i dont know which one to tackle first...

 

probly the fuse. it would be the cheapest to fix no?

 

Sounds like a fuse or the motor

 

do the wipers start on their own or when you swtich on the dome light? if so, could be a ground issue. I am not guessing the wiper motor is bad if it works normally on INT. The interior control module above the fuse box controls wiper functions but those rarely go bad. I believe there is a relay somewhere under the dash. I will have to check my service manual when I get home.
