Auto Rear Window Wiper

Why does my rear wiper seem to work when in the off position? I seems to do a random wipe which seems to be cancelled if I quickly switch it on then off again, Is this a feature of the auto front wipers?

As far as I know it should only wipe if you select reverse when auto wipers are selected at the front. Displaced Yorkshireman.

I am def going forward when they do it, every time they do it I instinctly chek the stalk and it is pushed forward in the off position, however the front ones are still on auto. I have only noticed them operating in either wet or damp conditions, so they are not doing it in the dry! If its a fault then its very picky! Smile
