[QUOTE="Colt Hero, post: 9863, member: 124"] Just checked the intermittent wipers and they DO work as mentioned here: only on the first click of he lever. But there's a HUGE time delay difference from the 1st to 2nd gradient. The first (lowest) delays wipes about every 20 seconds, but the next one only about 7 seconds, then about 4, then 2 (or 1). But I guess it works as specified. I think the reason I thought it WASN'T working is the rain was coming down enough that I had already switched to the 2nd speed (or maybe even the 3rd speed) where you can turn the intermittent wheel, but it has no effect. Seems like a counter-intuitive implementation to me. The wheel should work on all three speeds. And as a side note, I recall the rain coming down hard enough to overwhelm the wipers - but it really wasn't raining THAT hard. The highest speed for these wipers does not seem to be fast enough (another reason why I was turning the wheel trying to make the wipers move faster). [/QUOTE]
