WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2005 Ford Explorer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The windshield wiper motor defaults to this mode when the run/park sensor does not sense the Hall-effect magnet inside the wiper motor. This can be caused by obstruction of the windshield wipers or binding linkage. The windshield wiper motor will continue to operate in a high/low speed condition for a period of 60 seconds.
