Wiper Switch Issue
This is common from what I could google, but I joined this site hoping for some specific advice/information.
Allow me to preface that I am by no means a mechanic and the extent of my mechanical knowledge is how to install a radio or do an oil change. lol. anyway, I bought a fc3s rx7, and trusting the inspection (doh) didn't test the wipers before buying the car. Well, it rained today and they don't work (on any setting). The rear wiper does, however. I took it to a garage and had them look at it (after replacing the "WIPER" fuse didn't work) and they told me that the switch (that also controlled the rear wiper and the hazards, both of which work) was broken even though it was recieving power and a replacement would be $975. I laughed and got some rain-x. I'm reading that this problem is just with the relay - i'm wondering if anyone can give me some specific instructions on fixing this problem (or a link to some) thanks in advance and apologies for being such a noob. if it's hard, i'll pay someone local to raleigh, nc $150 or so to come do it |
Info in the following thread including a post by "Pele" who repairs these. PM him for details.

Send me an email address in a PM and I will send you the instructions from an old Icemark web site.

Here is a link to a DIY on repairing the wiper switch. The instructions were derived from Icemarks old web site which is no longer available. I will keep this page up for at least a few weeks.
