The defect

The intermittent relay contact points located in the wiper combination switch assembly, due to a durability factor may wear prematurely. Frequent operation of the intermittent wiper circuit may cause the intermittent relay contact points to separate from the contact arm causing an electrical short circuit, resulting in wipers being inoperative. In the worst case, there is the possibility of a fire in the front windscreen wiper combination switch assembly.
