The wipers were turned off. I started the 97 corvette and the wipers just came on, made a couple swipes across the windshield and then just stayed up and would not go back down. we had just drove the car and just washed it.
Wiper delay cycle had not completed when shut off.

This reply probably too late but -
> Is this a wiper motor problem?
The motor may be OK but the parking switch has likely failed.
It should normally supply power until they reach their parking spot unless the main operator switch is still on and this probably controls a relay that may be faulty.
If you have had the problem corrected, you might post the problem found back here as a comment to aid others.

There is a wiper pulse board on the wiper motor itself that is failing, this can be replaced without replacing the entire unit.

You will need to replace the wiper transmission.This is a common problem.

You can pull the fuse to the wiper for now till you get it repaired. The common problem is the solder where the wire harness connects to the wiper motor goes bad. You can go to Auto Zone and replace the circuit board to the wiper module or you can save some money if you have a solder gun and some solder. The clip on the circuit board where the wire harness connects to is where it goes bad. Next time your wiper gives you problem, give the wire harness a light tap with the end of a screw driver and see if it stops or starts up. There was a recall on the wiper circuit board a while back, not sure buy you may be lucky if the dealer still has the recall active and it will not coast you anything. Good luck and hope this help's, the other thing would be the wiper switch is worn and needs to be replaced.
