if you follow the wires from your wiper switch. you will find the delay controler. it just plugs inline with the wiper switch. remove it from your system and see if that cures your problem. if it does just replace it. when you unplug the delay control on eachend, the wires will plug directly on to the wiper switch.

I had the same problem. the thing you have to watch out for is the switches are different for intermittent and regular wipers. If you junk the delay bo
wich is very expensive) and run normal wipers you should change the switch. There is a thermal circuit breaker in the delay box but is in the switch in regular wipers. It only ran about $25 at for for the regular switch.(beats an electrical fire)
