sounds like a lazy relay or the self park side u/s on motor

[frank1]

self park side u/s on motor ?

[unlucky alf]

there is a side to the motor that enables it to self park, if i recall it  stays live until a cam/or switch [i think] in the motor shuts that power off in the park position, im probably not explaining it that well perhaps somebody else can put it better than me. im only basing it on others ive done before but not on miggys but would think its based on the same theory.

[frank1]

your explaining it ok, i get what u mean, i think its probly just what u say or the relay, i just thought i'd ask wile i'm on hear, cheers

I have this on mine.  

Initial diagnosis suggests a wiper motor issue - the parking contacts as said. I've got a motor waiting to go in mine but haven't got round to it yet.

As a temporary fix try removing the wiper delay relay from the underbonnet relay box by the battery. It won't auto-park but at least you'll be able to stop the wipers.
