2001 Chrysler Sebring sedan, 2.7 dohc, 4 speed auto,
First my headlights, not a big issue and probably to vague to diagnose easily, but when I turn the car off and take the key out with the headlights on, then I turn the headlights off, the drl relay clicks on. Leaving the headlights on daytime running lights (high beams half brightness), until I either turn the ignition back on then off, or back into parking lights mode then off again.
My windshield wipers will intermittently (more often than not) stop functioning properly. If I select mist (only one wipe) it will only move if/when I hold the lever down, if I let go, the wipers will stop in whatever position they are in, and will stay there until I move them again. When on intermittent, the malfunction makes them go onto low for as long as it decides to last (random). Low and high speeds are unaffected, only intermediate and the single wipe functions. I already switched around the relays in the engine bay fuse box, between AC, hi/low, and intermittent relays, did nothing.
I signed up for the Chrysler forum, posted this there, and I must say, it doesn't hold a candle to Pennock's, disorganised, bad layout on a phone, and no one's replied yet haha. Here, if I have an issue with my Fiero, almost guaranteed to have the solution, or at least troubleshooting steps within the day, so I figured, why not try here too haha.

Try swapping the DRL relay with a similar relay from the same box (horn relay perhaps?). If the problem goes away, then you have a faulty relay (obviously).

My guess would be either the wiper motor park switch (inside the wiper motor assembly) is defective, or the wiper lever.
(Well, you got your answer on PFF! Not sure it is in any way helpful though )
