I have a 2011 Toyota avalon that I have had for many years and never liked the auto rain sensing feature. Finally went to google some answers and found your video and 2 minutes back to good old fashion delayed wipers!!! I wish I would have done this 150k miles ago.
I’m glad I could help!
This worked on my 2011 ES350. The rain sensors were set up for those people you see driving with their wipers on full blast in a mist. I can’t stand them going faster than need be. Thank you for the video 👍🏼😎
I agree!
My last two RX’s Have had the rain sensing wipers and I love them!
This worked on my 2018 Toyota Limited Platinum. The Toyota dealership in town wanted to charge me somewhere between $500 and $600 to get a replacement for my broken auto sensing wipers. This is much better and thanks. I Love You-Tube.
Glad I could help!
THANK YOU ! This worked on a 2008 Toyota Avalon Limited as well. I prefer INT wipers over these spastic auto wipers myself and its free and takes 1 minute to do .
Glad I could help. I love the Avalon!
This worked on my brand new 2024 Civic Touring. Thanks a lot for the video man. Wouldnt have occurred to me to try it. Highly disliked the rain sensing wipers. Take too long to wipe or even worse I like to use the INT mode when there is fog that constantly fogs up the windshield. Would not swipe as it wasnt detecting rain and would have to manually swipe every time 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼 INT mode is so
Much better, guaranteed wipe every 3/6/8/12 seconds.
Thanks so much for the helpful advice on the rain sensor wipers disable. I didn't like the way my Lexus ES was operating on Auto wipers. Now it's in regular intermittent mode. 👍👍
You’re very welcome.
Thank youuuu!!
That rain sensing option drives me crazy! Lol
Omg, thank you so much for posting this!! My GX470 wipers were driving me nuts.
You’re welcome
Thank you.
I managed to ‘break’ the gel seal when installing a dash cam too close to the sensor housing and your fix has worked quickly and easily. The rain sensing wipers were always a little annoying anyway as they didn’t seem to manage too well the decision about when to operate. I’m happy with the four standard intermittent options now available for me to initiate and control. I have a 2008 UK RX400h.
Thanks again.
Very glad I could help.
Thank you so much 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 you saved me
GS 350 2013, you saved me 🙏
Thank you a lot buddy. Got used es350 and it was driving me nuts. It would hold/wait too much while driving to the point that I finally give up and do a manual "push", then, all of the sudden it would start going crazy when stopped on traffic light.... go figure.
Yeah it’s a great concept but it’s not perfected yet.
@ XJLuxury; I have the the 2004 RX330 as well. Can you tell me how you removed the rain sensor black box off? Your video already has it off. Did you squeeze and slide, pull the cover off at the top or bottom??? I just don't want to break anything by forcing it off by pulling. Yeah, the rain sensing feature sucks because it does NOT work too well. I rather have intermittent wipers. BTW, Thanks for the great DIY video!
There is a tab on the bottom of it that you must pull off and then you can wiggle off the black box.
This worked on 2014 gs350. I guess toyota put this system in place just in case sensor completely fails. My sensor cost over $300 for part. On my car push back the sensor towards the the sunroof to release it. Thanks alot for video
Glad I could help!
You made my day. This is an easy fix! Thank you!
Great info
Thx
are you serious? big thumbs up man!
Thanks
Thank you, man!
You’re welcome
I'll have to give this a go tomorrow.
The rain sensor was always terrible but I had my windscreen replaced and the idiots broke the mechanism. So doesn't detect and doesn't do intermittent. I'll try just disconnecting it.
It worked perfect on my 2004 RX330. Tx
You’re welcome
Thanks! Works on a 2012 Honda CRV
Awesome thx for the vid, but now we can't get that black box case on again lol
How’s it goin, I have a 2003 Lexus gs430 I tried taking the cover off but it only has a black wire goin the actual mount for the windshield, there’s no clip to remove the wire
It might be a different design. There is a way to use a high end scan tool to disable it that way. See if your mechanic has one you could use
@@XJLuxury cool t y
Did this to my 2013 RX 350 (AL10); worked wonders.
Problem now is that I have to have the wiper stock on "AUTO/INT" before I turn the car on just to be able to adjust the timing of the wipers; otherwise, they'll only wipe every four seconds. Any suggestions as to what to do next?
I think it converts it to either time delayed or speed sensitive now
Hi it worked for Toyota Avensis as well 🎉❤ thanks!!!
Holy batman, THANK YOU!!!!!!!!
You’re welcome Robin.
Thanks alot
Thank you sooooooo much!! 😃👌🏽
You’re welcome
Well I dont know why it doesnt work for my gx470- unplugged and still crazy random wipes.
So I recently purchased a 2007 GS and I tried the same method on it but it did not work I had to use my friends dealer level scan tool to go into the programming mode to disable the rain sensing wiper.
😃😃😃
👍👍👍
THANK YOU!!!
Rx350 2012
It’s help to me !!!!
I have a problem that holder for rain sensors was came unstuck, so just stick by double scotch type, and sensor stop to work…
I just disconnect… same like you… and it’s working….
That one sensor actually piece of sh&$@t)))
👍👍👍
Thanks I don’t like it on my es350 either it’s doesn’t even work I think sensor is bad or the gel pad I will disable this sensor
Yes it is a great concept but it’s not fully ready yet.
Did not work for 2010 lexus is250 if anybody's got help for that
Same here. 2008 IS250, previous owner fitted an aftermarket windscreen and didn't reconnect the sensor, but AUTO setting doesn't work in intermittent mode.
@@ravensthorne4631 I disconnected my sensor and now auto/intermittent doesn't work at all. Just medium and high - super sick
My question is this same function while rainsensor damage?
What?
Tried this on my 2007 Lexus GS 350 and wipers did not work on auto setting. Anyone else have this issue?
I had that exact car (I miss it). What you did disabled the auto setting, however, it should revert to a speed based duration instead.
XJLuxury I appreciate the message. Is there anything else I can do or that you did to make it work? Absolutely love the car but I think I have a bad rain sensor and it doesn’t work properly so it’s a pain
I'm having the same problem with my 2011 GS 350, unplugged and nothing on int/auto.
rain sensor is the dumbest thing ive ever experienced. both on audi a6 and volkswagen passat. its undriveable.
I agree!
It's not true because before this work we should do other one
What?
