Every so often my intermittent wipe shows a gremlin.. instead of wiping 1 full cycle then parking back, they do 1 and a bit; any thoughts?

I have exactly the same (occasional) problem. Would appreciate hearing if/how you manage to solve it.

Sounds like your park switch on the wiper motor has gone a bo**ock. Not expensive but awkward to change.
