A combination manual and automatic vehicle wind- shield wiper control system is provided which integrates a windshield moisture-sensing based wiper eontrol system (20, 22) into an existing design of original equipment wiper sys- tem (16, 18, 24) with minimum impact on manufacture and retrofit by using the existing vehicle wiring harness (12) and existing connectors. The invention provides easy integration of a moisture-sensitive wiper control system (20, 22) into a class of vehicles in a manner which does nat interfere with the operation of the standard or pulse-wipe systems (16, 18, 24) already existing in the manual mode even if the moisture- sensitive system (20, 22) should fail for any reason. The mois- ture-sensing mode of operation replaces the delay or pulse mode. |
