Hi All, my wipers only work at one speed. I am hoping it is the intermittent relay. I saw a post how to test relays and was going to do it, but I cannot find the relay. It's not noted in the relay/fuse box in the engine or under the driver-side dash. I saw the relays above the blade fuses in under-side dash. Anyone know where it is? Thanks.
This car is the EX model sedan.

Welcome to 2CaroPros.

I attached a picture of the relays you are referring to. They are in the under hood power /. relay distribution box. See picture.

Now, to determine the cause of the problem, you really should have the computer scanned for diagnostic trouble codes. The codes related to this system would be B codes and require a higher level scanner to identify.

Let me know if you have questions.

Take care,
Joe

Not a problem. Keep in mind, the switch itself can be bad and not sending power other than on the working speed.

Let me know what you find or if you have other questions.

Take care,

Joe
