Electrical problem
2004 Chevy Tahoe V8 Four Wheel Drive Automatic 101k miles

Wipers will not turn off after use in low or high mode. Can't determine if it will or won't happen using just intermittent mode as I have not been able to get them to stop. The car has been turned off many times, repeatedly, and still they are not off, even over night.

Thanks so much rhall,
I'll have to look at this tonight. Can you give me an idea of the general location of the wiper motor?
I have printed out the wiring diagram for this but could use a little help in locating the motor.
Direct email is [email protected] if that helps.

Well, I checked as you advised. Please see photo. Is the washer motor in this picture? I can only think it's this black box at the top right of the picture. Otherwise it must be under a part of the cowl that I must remove in order to see the motor. There is no corrosion or damage to either of the connectors on the box in this picture. Thanks.
