The heart of this circuit is an astable multivibrator using 555 Ic. We actually change the duty cycle of the square wave to obtain different sweep rates to control the wiper. The output pin 3 of the IC remains high for a time period set by R2. During this time the wiper motor will sweep at rates.

The power supply to this wiper control circuit should be 12V. fit the potentiometer R2 anywhere on the dashboard of your vehicle and control the sweep rates according to the intensity of the rain.
