I have got a 2012 Toyota Hi-lux 4x4 Work mate that I purchased a couple of years ago.
Generally I am happy with it except for one glaring problem, the windscreen wipers. It is unbelievable in such a modern vehicle that the wipers have no intermittent switch, there is fast and slow settings but both are a continuous wipe and unless the rain is really hammering down even the slow setting results in a chattery wiping action. There is another option on the control stalk that says "mist" for that one you have to flick the switch manually to get one wipe of the wiper. What that in affect means is that most of the time in rain you find yourself having to flick the mist switch every time you want the wipers to wipe once to avoid the chattey action caused by wiping a not wet enough screen. It is incredibly frustrating! and a big fat FAIL for the designers at Toyota.
I went and asked the Toyota dealer if they could fit a control stalk from a SR series Hi-lux that has got intermittent settings on it but was told that is not possible.
Went to a renowned auto electrician to see if he could fit something like this to the circuit to give an intermittent wipe setting Hella 7010 Windscreen Wiper Control Rotary Switch - Intermittent, 12V DC but they are no longer made/available and it seems there is no one else that makes a similar item anymore.
Really hoping I do not have to get rid of an otherwise excellent vehicle for the sake of a stupidly equipped wiper switch.
If anyone happens to have one of those Hella intermittent relay switches kicking around(as in the link) they would be happy to sell or knows of any alternative please let me know.
