Wiper problem, stuck in the middle for a few seconds
Hey guys, i have a 2014 IS350 fsport and recently, i realize that my wiper in the intermittent mode get stuck in the middle randomly. I would need to wait 10-15 seconds before it works again or i will have to toggle the wipers to get it unstuck.
It happens intermittently and i cannot always reproduce it, but i manage to capture it on video. Please see the attached video.

Any advice is appreciated. Car is still under warranty.

I had the same issue. I would end up fighting with the switch while driving to keep the wiper blades from getting stuck. Dealer replaced the wipe relay switch and that solved the issue.

Same here. My 2014 is250 awd. Was doing the same. Now when I spray the wiper fluid it won't even start wiping automatically. Also when the wipers are in use and I want to turn them off I have to time it just right or they stop in the middle if the windshield.
my car is currently at the dealership to see if I had the rear bumper rust issue or whatever. I'll let you know what they say.

Update. The dealership asked Lexus if they would fix tee he wiper issue as my vehicle was so close to 50k(54k).
Lexus agreed and fixed the issue with no charge.
Problem was a bad relay in tbe steering wheel.
