I posted this question on P700 page because they have a thread about it:

P700 - Wiper Wiring Diagram

My question is I wired up my P1K this way with the relay last year with no issues at. The wiper parks perfectly when I switch off the wiper switch. Today while it was pouring out (again) I had the wiper going for a 5-7 minutes. I pulled in the garage and switched OFF the accessory switch before I switched off the wiper switch. Realizing my mistake because the wiper did not park properly, I switched off the wiper switch off but obviously that didn’t park the wiper because there was no power from the accessory switch. So switched the accessory ON while the wiper was switch OFF and the wiper Began to continually run whether I had the wiper switch on and off. Ever time I have the accessory switch ON the wiper is running. I can’t switch it off.

Did I fry the wiper switch or the park relay or both or something else?
