Rear Wiper activated automatically When in Reverse
Hi,
It was raining tonight and I just noticed my rear wiper wiped the rear windshield once when i shifted my gear into Reverse (rear window wiper switch was in OFF position), is this normal ?

Yes, as long as the front wipers are on and working, the rear is activated by engaging reverse. I wish I could turn that off, along with making the time between wipes on the rear wiper longer. I think it swipes too soon.
