my wipers only come on while the car not running but while car is running wipers will not work. And none of the gauge work on the dashboard. Only MIL's illuminate. I thank you for helping and God bless.

Have you checked the fuses? In particular, the interior lights fuse and the airbag fuse which might be in a yellow pull handle. Check if the interior lights work or if there is some other system that does not work.

The fuses I mentioned are often used to stop battery drain while the car sits at the factory waiting to be sold and delivered to a dealer. The engine will run but some systems will only work while the engine is running.
