When i use my turn signal my windshield wipers come on. They sometimes come on by themselves. Can you please help me and maybe tell me where to start to correct this problem. It drives me crazy. I did however remove the fuse to the wipers but its a pain in the ass when it rains to put the fuse back in. Thanks again.

Hello,

This is a problem with the wiper module (GEM) which needs to be replaced here is the location under the dash kind of in the middle.
