hey guys,
I'm having trouble with my wipers, I turn on my ignition to acc and my wipers come on, they seems to be operating on intermittent setting. I have done no work to the car recently, however i did change car stereo 3 mths ago. I used all the correct plugs for the stereo and only put in a head unit. I'm at a lose as to what the issue could be. any help would be great

hey TedW, It's a sedan, yes wipers work normal when in use, everything works normal. However my smart lock light came on last time i started it and stayed on, but once home i turned car off and re started and it was fine, it went out. I take it kick panel is next to my right foot on drivers side. thanks for your help.

yes kick panel is next to right foot seperate connectors and check for corrrossion -moisture etc. -
check earths at battery are clean-tight and all connected
disconnect wiper motor and see if you hear bem clicking -
disconnect wiper switch and check if you hear bem clicking -
smartlock light and wiper indicates bem is possibly faulty or has a bad earth to it -
