I have a 2002 Mitsubishi Montero. I have had a issue with my headlights, windshield wipers, and horn. It's starts out with the wiper blades going off by themselves. If I shut off the headlights, they turn off, but they will eventually start again. I took it to the dealership and they replace the relay (I think?) for the windshield wipers and turn signal. It didn't last long before it did it again. But I decided NOT to bring it back. Now the SRS light is on. It stopped for a year or so, but it started again. When I turn the headlights off, the wipers turn off. Eventually, the horn will sound after a day. What could be the issue? This time they are telling me it MAY BE the horn relay. Any suggestions?

MITSUBISHI Montero LS 1997 model's wind shield washer is not working

Hello. I think you have a faulty turn signal switch; the wiper/washer, low/high beam headlamp, windshield washer delay etc. circuits are all controlled by this switch. Good luck and keep me informed; if you want to.

Wipers not working

If you hear the wiper motor running but the blades do not move then the linkage grommet that connects the two wiper arms to the motor needs to be replaced. If you don't hear the motor running it could be a loose connection, a bad switch, a blown fuse, a burned or shorted wire, or a bad motor. Only an electrical multimeter and patience will sort out an electrical issue.

Headlight wiper

They shouldn't - they only work when you do a wash/wipe.
