Rear Wiper
Rear wiper has stopped working today, it has stopped at opposite end of boot (possibly when I knocked the ignition off mid way). I checked the fuse and it was ok but pins looked a bit manky so sanded and refitted, no joy.
Might try some contact cleaner around the holder. Any other suggestions? |

It could be any number of issues. The circuit needs to be investigated methodically with a test light/multimeter. There might also be a DTC to read with VIDA.

Finally got round to looking at this again. It had randomly worked a couple of times I'd noticed. I took fuse out again, sanded and then cut a nail file down and sanded in the fuse holder. Didn't seem to work. From the following day though it's been working 100% again!

On the blink again, works the odd time but slow to start. I tried cleaning the fuse and holder again but no joy.

It's more than likely the motor, mine packed up about a month ago. Sometimes worked sometimes didn't and sometimes it just got stuck in the middle. You can disassemble the motor easily and clean it out, chances are it's let a bit of water in through the rubber grommet in the window and the splined shaft is either a bit rusty or the grease inside has gone mushy. I tried this on mine but it was actually very clean inside. Ended up buying an aftermarket one on ebay for under 30quid and it's been great. But I tried to fix and repair before replacing.

Mine is doing this too and is a replacement part . Seems the quality is perhaps suspect.
