ok so i was at work when a co worker was nice enough to tell me that my lights were left on... i figured interior lights since its impossible to leave your headlight on by accident in our cars... well i was wrong.. my headlights were on... i turned them off and figured the switch to turn them off (ground point at driver door) must have stuck whenever i opened the door and the lights didn't turn off... no big deal... well now here comes the problem

i parked my car at home and three hours later went out to find my headlights on and my windshield wipers going... the car was not on.... i turned the car on and turned off the lights but the windshield wipers keep going... and going and going... turning the switch does nothing... i even disconnected the switch at the column and pulled the fuse and they still keep on going... obviously there is a short somewhere... anyone have any ideas... i tried to trace it the best i could but its so hard with all the snow here.... please help with any ideas!! i don't see any pinched wires in the steering column near the switch...

small update: i've cornered it to the connection at the passenger (US) footwell right above where the door harness plugs in.... the harness runs through the pass wheel well and connects at the panel at the footwell... unplug that and everything works just fine... any help is appreciated

do you have a splashguard on that pass wheel? from interior it runs out behind the fender and back into the engine bay inline behind the headlight and makes it's way back. drop that splashguard if you got it and cleck for abriasions. you've got commons crossing.
