it still bugs me tho that it did it once... every time it rains, i am worried it will do it again.

Probably moisture getting into the wiper control module which is part of the wiper motor. I had my module replaced under warranty on my 2004 as this was a common problem. If you search this forum you will find that some owners were able to fix the problem by drying out the inside of the module and sealing it with RTV. A replacement is over $ 300 since the motor and module are a one pice assembly.

To my understanding it's not all 2008 & 2009 H2's.

Most do not have the heated wiper fluid system. I think it's those who have that button right below the interior light dome illumination function.

Most like myself have a illustration diagram showing an increasing half circle.

I just have the normal winshield wiper system.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

I have the wiper system in my 06 LE. I believe only the LE's have them in the H2's. I must say I like the feature and I'm dissapointed that the fix is to just disable it. What the hell, there is not another system or fix? GM really sucks now! " Oh, I have the the heated window fluid system, it doesnt work, GM said it may cause a fire, sothey said just disconnect it and you'll be fine. "

The company that made that heated windshield wiper fluid feature...went bankrupt and folded. Thus, there isn't a fix. It sucks for those who have it and need it especially in the snowy weather.

For 08 & 09 H2 owners...this pic shows those who do have the feature: (you can see the windshield heated wiper emblem)


Thus, you'll need to take it into the dealer...takes 10-15 mins for them to "unplug" this option.

Those 08 & 09 H2 owners who don't have it:

never even thought I was missing anything.

Could it cause a fire if left alone but not used?
