Wash / wipe help

After a windscreen wash / wipe cycle, the wipers used to pause and then do another wipe. This was really neat and, apparently, I didn't dream it - it really did happen.

Now this has stopped, and I have no idea why. The manual doesn't seem to help either. Is it a setting on the wiper stalk somewhere?

TIA

could it perhaps have been residual water running down the screen causing the rain sensor to swithch on the wipers?

Don't think so
