All of a sudden my delay wipers don't work. The regular wipers are fine, and the washers work, though the wipers do not come on with washers. (I don't remember if they ever did to be honest) Is there by any chance a seperate fuse for delay, or is my switch in the arm gone bad?

LOL...

The first time I got the silvert on the road for a trip, it started raining. So I flicked the wipers on. They worked - cool. Then it stopped raining. They wouldn't shut off... WTF? So I unplugged the motor and continued on our way. Then it started raining again so I had to plug them back in... This happened two or three times.

This happened one other time and the same process followed.

However, ever since then the wipers function normally. Perhaps the terminals just needed to be cleaned off or something. Check that maybe.

same thing for me, i finally fixed it by replacing the wipper amp, which is the green box on driver's side of the engine bay, next to the brake booster

I finally got around to checking this out. My little green box is broken off from where it mounts to the fender well and was just laying in there. I am figuring that is probably my problem, as what ever resistors or whats in the box has probably vibrated to the point of it going out. Does anyone have one of these green boxes around they could hook me up with?

Same issue. Have had a mechanic work on it twice. Worked OK for a while, but now the wipers stay on til i shut off the ignition. Where do i get a new "green box"?

I have had no luck finding one either, I was sort of hoping one of the guys with a parts car might help me out.

All s13s had them, and the 'vert one is the exact same, just mounted in a diff. location if thats helps... try to contact Russ at JNRMotorsports, I am sure he has atleast one lieing around. I will look in my wire box, but, i don't think i have one...
