Subject:KAE Programmable Intermittent Wiper Relay Issue?

Hi all.

I won't mention vendor, as I'm waiting on a reply and I'm sure they're
busy, but has anyone had an issue using the KAE relay  3.200.110 ?

Wipers off, pulled stalk, all wipers operated. Stalk at intermittent,
pulled stalk several times to check programmable feature. Several
attempts, later the rear wiper fuse blew.

Might be a faulty relay, incorrect amperage fuse, or ? but if there's
a known issue with certain model years, I'm all ears.

This is for an '88 Westy, though some wiring corresponds to Bentley
'87 diagrams.

A few years back, I installed a "99" relay in my '81. Works perfectly.

Thanks

Neil.
