just in case it's a misunderstanding and you have no auto-wiper feature, do your wipers simply come on sometimes for no reason? could be an electrical short in the switch, which is common with steering column-mounted switches/stalks.

normally, replacement is the easiest solution.

What I'm thinking. Probably a short or something as no SC3/4 had auto wiper function. Probably water getting into somewhere it shouldn't. I wonder if the Soarer had auto wiper options...
