They're controlled by the CPH Stewart...
Their wiring runs down under the passenger footwell and this can become very wet due to a failed windscreen scuttle panel seal. There is a big connector that can start swimming down there due to the damp and that sets in corrosion and all sorts of electrical funnies..
Worth a check...
