autopilot / turning off auto-wipers?

[refusedmd]

auto-wipers have been working great for me in general.

recently parked under a tree with some mild tree sap like material that lightly dropped all over my windshield -- when auto-wipers are engaged it thinks its water and will intermittently turn on. obviously this is fixed by turning off the auto-wiper function.

now when engaging autopilot the auto wiper function re-engages and i can't figure out how to turn this off?

There are no sensors for the wipers, it's the cameras and AI system.
Newer vision-only cars require auto wipers as well as auto headlights. The system relies on cameras, they need to see well.
