I dont think that shutting off the ignition key while driving is a very good
idea at all.

I'm not fond of the idea myself, but it's either that, or pulling over
to unplug the motor wire. I suppose I could pull over and shut off
the key. However, I plan to install an under dash switch, unless I
can get a replacement board. They want almost $100 for a rebuilt wiper
motor. I can get a under dash switch and some wires for less than $5.
So, I think the switch wins. Now, I only have to determine which of
the 3 wires to cut to install the switch. ????
It's an old car, so I'm not going to spend a lot on a wiper motor that
still works, just wont shut off.
