Can't help you much but one of my 240s does taht also. Sometimes when i turn the car on they turn on full speed, then sometimes when i turn them on they won't turn off for a while. Annoying.

yeah i know its so annoying..like it leaves these marks on my windshield and the glare are night from oncoming drivers is a b****, and with 18 inches of snow im not really to excited about trying to fix it lol, i might just try and look up which fuse it is and take it out

probably a bad wiper stalk.

did u do any electronic work? ie. hooking up gauges?

Replace wiper switch. Located next to the steering wheel on the right side. Where you turn the wipers on and off. Replace it. No need for this to continue.

When I rubbed through my passenger side wheel well harness, this exact thing happened. Check that.
