I believe that there is a faulty ground, as you suggested. My logic is that when I turned into the neighborhood after catching overdrive... my wipers came on. I had them in the "intermittent" position as they were only working on High. The "mist" function also worked.

I am probably going to just run new ground straps as you suggested rather than chasing a bad one.
Refresh them all and add some more.

I'm thinking Tip 10 first, then testing the solenoids if that has no effect.

If you're so sure about it, why don't you send him a new set of solenoids.

If that fixes the problem, he pays you. If not, he doesn't.

so i assume he is just stating that they happen to be new solenoids. lol

so if you're so sure that your tip 10 will fix it, why not fly out to show him in person. haha

just kidding... lol
