Default Wipers permanently on Intermitent...pull fuse 13?

Hi,
Am bringing my car out of winter hibernation this week and noticed the wipers won't stop being on 'intermittent'. They work properly on all wiper switch positions except off!!

I found this thread, with some hints to follow / explore... https://www.s2ki.com/forums/s2000-un...ittent-820943/.

Not sure I'm going to get around to chasing the root cause down immediately as I'd prefer to prioritise all the other 'springtime priorities' and then come back to this when I've got some time & patience to spare! I've tried the easy basics / wildly hopefuls... checked the battery earth, disconnected and left for a while, wiggled the switch, etc etc. Wipers steadfastly & regularly wipe every so many seconds!

Does anyone know if pulling the under the dash fuse 13 (seems to provide power to the intermittent delay circuit on the guage panel) will cause any adverse impacts in the meantime??!! I don't want to make matters worse - can't think they will, unless someone knows better...!!

Thanks inadvance...

Puling fuse 13 will not create any side effects, but I would also check the wiper relay to make sure it's not stuck. Take it out, give it a little tap on a table, work surface, ect and put it back in or spend the couple bucks to get a new relay and toss it in to verify that it's not the problem.
