While driving on the interstate highway in the late afternoon, it began to rain very hard. The windshield wipers were turned on and where operating correctly for about five minutes when suddenly they stopped. It was almost impossible to see but, I was able to pull over to the shoulder of the highway. I tried the switch several times without any success. While sitting on the side of the road the wipers started again and continued to work. I decided to pull back on the road but, after about another three minutes they stopped again in mid stride. Again I was able to pull over. I got out of the truck and grabbed the wiper arm. As soon as I touched it began to operate again.
