THE WINSHIELD WIPER MOTOR WOULD ORIGINALLY NOT TURN OFF WHEN ACTIVATED ON INTERMITTENT, OR FULL ON. NOW IT SHUTS OFF BY ITSELF WHEN ACTIVATED. IT DID THIS THE OTHER DAY DURING A SEVERE RAINSTORM. I HAD TO OPEN THE HOOD, BEAT ON THE WIPER MOTOR WITH A LARGE FLASHLIGHT (IT WAS HANDY TO USE), TO GET THE MOTOR TO WORK. OTHER OWNWERS OF S-10'S THAT I KNOW ARE REPORTING THE SAME PROBLEM. IT IS A SEVERE SAFETY HAZARD TO HAVE YOUR WINSHIELD WIPERS QUIT ON YOU , IN TRAFFIC OR NOT, DURING A RAINSTORM.
