'86 300SDL headlight wiper problem

When I turn on the lights, the headlight wipers run all the time. Pulled fuse 17, they didn't stop. Any ideas? Planning a long distant trip soon, and may have some night driving involved. Thanks, Dave.

If worse comes to worse you can unplug the motors, they're a small square 4 spot plug attached to the back of the headlight.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. I went out and on a hunch, hit the washer, and the little wipers stopped! And stayed stopped with the lights on. Hmmmm.
