According to this thread, the Yaris does not have a a rear delay module. You can replace the stalk to have an intermittent front wiper, but not a rear one.

According to CTScott, "the intermittent rear requires a module and an extra wire, which the Yaris doesn't have. I picked up the module from a Prius, but it needs feedback from the rear wiper motor, which the Yaris's wiper motor doesn't provide."

He did "build a module which included a potentiometer to allow for fully adjustable rear intermittent using timing to replace the feedback signal, " but I am not sure if he ever installed it as in that thread he stated he had only bench-tested it. Maybe he'll roll in and give an update...

Cheers! M2

I haven't gotten around to putting it on the car yet. I put a Prius stalk on my car, which gives me fully adjustable intermittents for the front and one ittermittent position for the rear (which doesn't do anything since the Yaris lacks the wire and the pin connection to take advantage of it.)

The circuit that I built and bench tested does the intermittent thing and has an adjustable delay via a potentiometer (adjustable from 1 second to 1 minute). My plan was to mount the pot in the driver's glove box, since it's not something that I imagined constantly changing.
