      Wiper Relays: is there 1 for the front and 1 for the rear?

      Hi all, I'm trying to figure a way to make the rear wiper intermittent (permanently intermittent). On the wiring diagram, it shows only one relay for both the front and rear wipers. Is this really the case?

      If so, anyone know of a way to add an inline method to make the rear wipers intermittent?

      I'm no electronics expert, but I know a little. Can you post the schematic?

      Yeah, take a look at this schematic. 'cause I can't figure it out. May be I will end up having to cut and solder an intermittent relay some how. If you can figure it out that would be a great help.[attachment=0:18frgsal]aveowiperschem.jpg[/attachment:18frgsal]

      you just need the circuit on the very bottom. that shows the switch is the same part, but there is no relay or anything going to the rear. all those breaks and markings are plug connections along the path.

      Do you know if I just buy a relay (as shown below)


      Is there a way to hard wire it into the Aveo circuits?

      Here is a link to the relay article:

      And FWIW, this is a link to a manual speed control hack:

      It looks like either of those solutions would work. Do you always want it on intermittent thought? If you don't, you'll need an additional switch or something to control constant/intermittent operation.
