wipers switch ???

I'm having occasional nuisances with my 1999 Ext Cab. The wipers come on at random. I'll just be driving and all of the sudden, my truck will wave to someone and then it seems fine; sometimes I have to turn them on then off to get them to go off. I was wondering if the switch would be the problem or the fuse. Also, is the fuse under the driver's side or under the hood? Thanks for any help.

Hi there, welcome to the forum.

I would suspect that the multifunction switch is going bad. This switch controls the wipers, turn signals, etc.

wiper switch? yup.

yes ,sure seems like its the switch, like you are stuck on the first notch of intermittent. if you let it go 30 sec. it will probably "wave" agin. they are realtively easy to change, don't even have to pull the steering wheel.
