My take on this, is that the wipers can be controlled by either the BCU or directly by the stalk switch.

Either source could be forcing the wiper relays on and the wipers to run.

He suggests he has unplugged the wiper stalk, so that only leaves the BCU generating the 'run' signal, or a fault on the wiring.

He might try unplugging the BCU, after disconnecting the battery, then reconnecting the battery to see what the result is.

Fix a poor handbrake; DIY ABS diagnostic unit; Loan of the spanner needed to change the CDT belts; free OBD diagnostics +MAF; Correct Bosch MAF cheap; DVB-T install in an ex-hi-line system; DD install with a HK amp; FBH servicing.

I've taken a vow of poverty. To annoy me, send money.
