   I installed the VW relay in the UBERWGN (1995.5 S6 Avant) and it works
   as described.  I don't like it, because you can't change the variation
   very easily. You have to turn it off and leave it off for a "long time"
   maybe a minute" before it will reset so you can set a new interval.
   Maybe I'll try the APS/Autotech unit next, if I can find out how to
   order it...

So if you turn it off, then on, the "new interval" doesn't take effect
and the old interval remains?

Related question: from "quiescent" state (been "off long enough"), does
a one-shot flick(*) (one my '83, a pull back on the wiper lever; if you
hold the lever back, engages the washer as well [actually, it "always
engages the washer pump, but if I just "flick" it, the pump doesn't
get enough of a chance to start pumping]), followed shortly by engaging
the intermittent-wipe position establish that interval as the new in-
terval, or do you have to select intermittent, then off, then inter-
mittent to establish the new interval? [Clever trick, that!]

(*)	Is this what was meant by "mist" (as in "(*not* mist)" above?)
