I know all about the wiper module moisture problem, fixed on two H2's in the past, my current rig being one of them. First time I fixed it they were going sporadically, so I got the module and dried it and sealed it with RTV. Then just the other day I noticed that they would hesitate half way through a cycle every once in a while. I was on a road trip this weekend and it started to rain and they wouldn't turn on at all. Rear wiper works fine. I went back in after the module and it looked dry. I sprayed it down with contact cleaner and dried it out, resealed it with RTV, and they still won't work. I am VERY dumb when it comes to electrical issues. Do you think I should just get another module? Or have someone look at it to see if the gremlin is somewhere else?

I took mine apart and saw a cracked circuit board run. I soldered a piece of 14GA wire across it.

Could be your problem as mine did the same thing - intermitent, then one day nothing, then intermitent.....

The circuit board looked fine as far as I could tell.

To re-word my question, what are the chances my module is fine and the problem is elsewhere?

Well, after 3 days of not working at all, they worked fine last night on my way home from work. I guess this means it is my module???

I'm not getting a lot of answers here, does anyone know what my next move should be?

We had a good rain last night and they didn't work this morning. Should I just cave and get a new module?
