ok i have a 92 fox GT and whenever i turn the windshield wipers on i hear a strange ticking sound as if i have my blinkers on. is that normal or is that the motor goin out?
and im not talkin about the regular sound the wipers make and no my blinkers arent on at the same time lol

 

LOL!...^^^ ... well... Now that u covered all the possibilities... We all don't know what the REAL problem is... lmao! ... Perhaps something is binding... Is the sound coming from behind the dash ext/in the cowl area where the motor is? or behind the dash int wise? U may wanna elaborate more pls... Just so the real Tech guys can help or walk u thru to probe ur problem...Know what I mean?

 

yea i gotchya lol
its inside the car behind the dash and it only ticks when the wipers actually move to wipe

 

Like stated,.. something binding or perhaps a relay tripping. check for the obvious things first. Then start hunting down the noise with the wipers working. I had the bolts for the wiper motor come lose because of metal fatigue on a Camaro once,.. I'm sure it is possible with Mustangs too.

sounds like a relay to me. when did it start? i didn't hear anything when i was driving your car the other day.

 

Pull the wiper arms off and see if the noise is still there.

Damn relays always ticking!

 

I'd say you are low on blinker fluid. Not an uncommon problem. Do a search. If that's not low, I'd say it is a relay tripping.

 

ok thanks guys
ill check the relay, easy one first lol

 

its the relay lol
thanks guys
