So pretty simply put, my wipers like to turn on at random times for no rhyme or reason, sometimes will wipe a few passes aswell. Any ideas what could cause this?

 

Mine do this as well.

 

There is a write up on another site on how to solve this issue. Basically, the dielectric grease that was used inside the wiper control **** has broken down and become "gunk", causing the random wipers. The write-up explains how to break it down and clean it all up. MIne did this for a while, and I was almost ready to do this job, and then it stopped.
There's always something more pressing, so I haven't worried about it.

 

It could also be the multifunction switch, basically the the whole lever blinker wiper lever is bad. I called mine ghost wipers. Bought a multifunction switch off Ebay swapped it out and boom all good.

 

Thanks for the fix guys, I'll give that a try in the spring

 

You don't happen o have the seller info do you? I'm having the same issue and I was thinking the switch as well.
