Occassionally in heavy rain the wipers will stop working. If we turn off the engine and wait a few minutes and restart the engine the wipers will operate normally for a period of time (varies) and stop again

    Probably your wiper motor is beginning to fail and when it heats up it quits working and when it cools it will start again.
