Default Wipers stuck on?

Started up for work earlier this week on a clear blustery morning and my wipers were stuck on. I had to turn the switch on and off a few times and it stopped. Happened to me again yesterday morning. Anyone else experience this or is it just a bad switch or something?

Yes, it could be a bad switch giving an erroneous wiper request.
Disconnect the battery negative cable for a few minutes. That's a common fix for a lot of things on the JK.

Often, though, crazy wiper behavior, sometimes accompanied by other wild behaviors, is a sign something is going wrong in the TIPM.
