What is the Intermittent Wiper Relay all about?

In the distant past, windshield wiper operation had only 2 functions: on and off. Over time, car manufacturers introduced low, medium and high speeds, and eventually added intermittent wiper functionality. These series of developments provided drivers with a wider range of speeds for varying levels of precipitation.

This functionality relies on a component called a relay – the same technology that powers your fuel pump and keeps your car’s computer running. The relay uses electrical resistance relative to the position set on the wiper control arm to determine the specific speed at which the wipers move.

Because the intermittent wiper relay is electronic, it will inevitably fail and require replacement.

Keep in mind:

  • Intermittent wiper relay inspection is not part of most maintenance services.
  • Without the relay, your wipers will still work, but they will not offer variable speeds.

How it's done:

  • The intermittent wiper relay is verified it needs replacement
  • The defective intermittent wiper relay is removed
  • The new intermittent wiper relay is installed
  • The intermittent wiper relay is energized to turn it on
  • The wipers are tested to work properly in all control positions

Our recommendation:

Intermittent wiper operation isn’t required to drive your vehicle, and as long as your windshield wipers work, you’re legally permitted to drive while raining. However, lack of such an option can be a major inconvenience. If your wipers no longer work on the intermittent setting, a failed relay is likely the cause. Have it inspected by one of our expert mechanics and replaced if necessary.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Intermittent Wiper Relay?

  • Intermittent speed setting does not always work
  • Intermittent setting does not work at all

How important is this service?

Working wipers are required for safety on the road, but intermittent functionality is a convenience feature. However, it can be frustrating to constantly turn the wipers on and off to meet different rates of precipitation. Have the intermittent wiper relay replaced when it’s practical to do so.

Chevrolet Impala V6-3.8L - Idler Pulley - Clearwater, Florida
This was my first service with YourMechanic and having Torrieanto as my mechanic today made a great first impression. Torrieanto was polite, professional and very easy to deal with. He made me feel comfortable discussing my concerns with my car's performance and my "self-diagnosis" of the issue. Most mechanics I have dealt with prefer to wave me off and let me know that they are the pro. Following his overview of my vehicle's performance he gave me a summary of his findings, made sure I understood, agreed with and was comfortable with the work he recommended and was going to perform. He even told me he was going to do his best to keep my cost below my expectations. (WOW!) Again, most mechanics take advantage of our lack of knowledge often changing unneccesary parts therefore earning more in labor and leaving us with a larger bill than necessary. His attitude was truly refreshing! Upon completion, Torrieanto showed me exactly what part was removed, pointed out my newly installed idler pulley and politely answered the few questions I expressed regarding my concerns about the "what-ifs" of my possibly delaying this sort of repair. He was beyond polite! He kept a clean workspace and treated me and my vehicle with respect. I will definitely request Torrieanto specifically when I need my vehicle services in the future. Thank you YourMechanic and thank you Torrieanto!
