The fronts are in or with the wiper motor itself. You may want to check the harness or the wiper motor and see if its dirty, seized or got detached. When i did my Standalone unit i removed the harness from the Factory harness itself and was not connected to anything exept the ECU and the clips of the wiper motor itself.

The RELAYS are inside the wiper switch assy.

Do an Advanced Search using the name ICEMARK and WIPERS as your inputs. Somewhere there should be a description on HOW TO. I've done it several times on different wiper switches and know of what I speak. YOU have a bad relay. Replace both or in your case all three.

http://www.teamfc3s.org/info/articles/wipers.html You can read that article all day and night long, but the bottom line is Replace the relays. It ain't the switch mechanics and it ain't the motor.

Is really easy to do, I just did it myself and got all my wiper setting including my rear. I am working on doing some finish up work after 5 years of owning my car and not driving it on the road yet. Got the stereo all finished today with a power antenna relay in place and everything working great. If you need any help pm me.

to this day i am amazed at how poorly people read.

as the first sentence says. i need new relays. where can i buy them. icemarks site did not work from the links in previous posts nor would let me buy the relay when i actually routed my way to it.

i do appreciate links to everything i have read and the positive responses, though.

edit: i always miss the damn mouser link.

Then the bottom relay needs replacement. The top relay is for the rear. Bottom for the front.
