Previously I didn't have auto wiper. When the wiper is set to intermittent position, it will have a longer delay if the car isn't moving. When the car get back to speed, it will return to the intermittent setting. I have retrofitted auto wiper by adding the sensor. Auto wiper works but it doesn't have this capability to slow down the wiping when the car is stationary. It just keeps wiping during rain. Is this the way it is?
