E39 Extreme Cold - Wiper Always On

[Rockabilly_Rebel]

Hi guys,

wondering if anyone can help me get a head start on this issue - E39 - Only upon extremely cold (-20C or -5F and below) startup, the wipers stay on regardless of arm position. Stops once warm. Major issue is the fact that nobody in their right mind would look at it in that kind of cold, so once you drive it into the garage, your main factor (cold) is no longer present.

Relay, switch or motor issue? Anybody ever had this experience? Where would you start looking to fix this? Any help is welcome.

Thanks guys.

Hey guys,
quick follow up: I ordered a new wiper arm/switch. Issue solved!

I think you should sell the E39 and buy an E30.
