put a new wiper motor on . so run it on fast & undone opened with no load to watch.2nd speed setting no problem .1st speed setting goes round to the switch strugles gets going again so on but resistance sets up in the earth return and its time to put it back on to no 2 to save a melt down .there doesunt seem to be any difference in the speed of rotation other than the dip in the switch point & they dont park . but ime not bothered about parkig position its a good game ! but me heads a little bent on whats goin on ! i have had alittle read but theres loads of different sinarios !

Check action of the wiper rack by hand, remove from motor and pull/push the wire, wipers should move quite ease.

If it ain’t parking then the park switch is faulty it’s wired wrongly.

Luxury having two speeds! Mines off and on, although my single speed wipers dont self park either and never have done as far as I can make out

I put an intermiitent wipe realy in parallel with the park switch, very handy and more use than 2 speed.

I have VW99 relay for intermittent wipe function allows you to set the time between 7 sec and 30 sec from memory.

rob1miles · Oct 18, 2019

I think that's what I have, works well.

ebay £10 .bit posh for real landy ! ill have a look at the switch and keep the post .thanks for the reply gentlemen .

rob1miles · Oct 19, 2019

I've taken the view that the £10 intermittent wipe saves more than that in wiper and wiper motor wear as mine is usually on intermittent unless its bucketing down.

did the switch but still no park & gets to melt the cable on slow .think the relay tip will be best !

rob1miles · Oct 24, 2019

If it melts the cable you have the park switch connected wrong. Pull all the wires off and start again. The main switch is wrong too. The park switc h earths the amarture to stop it, if you have it wrong this earths the supply (sounds like that's what you have). The main switch has two positions - run all the time and run via the stop switch, it has no off. The park switch is wired with the armature on common (from "run to park"), run to live and stop to earth. Wire it exaclty like the pic and it will work.
