Sounds like you have a short under your dash, or the computer that controls your electronics has gone haywire. I'm assuming you have installed an after-market radio? Do the wipers function normally with it off? How about with it out of the car altogether? I'd say your best bet is to go to the dealer and ask for halp... and take your checkbook!
