98 Eldorado Wiper Setup

[derekf]

Digging through the old board, I came across a post that as a "by the way" said this:


I have a 98 eldo and I love the wiper setup on it, it uses a senser to tell the wipers if there is enough moisture on the windshield to cycle once. One step up from delay mode.
Wow.. that's pretty cool. Anyone know how this works and/or how hard it'd be to retrofit to our cars?

Yeah, that's the "Rain Sense" option.

The sensor "grid" is formed into the glass of the windshield itself.

Over $1000 for the Caddy replacement.

It would be trick however, but not possible to retrofit to my knowledge.

A friend of mine works in a lab for a company that makes some rain sensors... He is trying to get me a few to play with to see if i can make em work on one of my projects... I'll let ya know if i ever get them :fingersx:

I've seen this deal, don't know how it works though.
