Wipers stopped working?!
Front wipers didn’t work at any of the settings. I could only manually engage them by pulling the lever, which is way more hassle than you’d think but it was in a downpour so it was constant.
Anyone else have their wipers stop working?

I did a little test last night. The wipers are disabled when the hood is unlatched. Bad hood switches often causes headaches when diagnosing wiper problems. I popped my hood and tested each setting of the wipers.
All front wiper settings were inoperative but the washer still sprayed fluid. The rear wiper and washer worked normally.
Sorry, but I can’t figure how your wipers wiped after spraying fluid. Mine would not. It wouldn’t hurt to pop you hood, examine the latch for obvious damage or debris and close it just to see if it is latch switch related.
Good luck and please keep us updated.
