Peugeot 306 - Indicators / Electric Door Mirrors / Intermittent Wipers Stopped working at same moment. Need a fix ASAP

Unread post by Shredder11 »

I have a 1999 Peugeot 306 2.0 XSi 5dr Ph2 and the other week while driving, my indicators, electric door mirrors and intermittent wipers stopped working at the same moment. I checked every fuse in the dash box and all seem good. A week later while driving everything came back on working briefly, again all at once. They stopped working for a few days and then again sprang to life randomly, again everything came on at once as I tested them all one by one while parked up.

So does anyone know where in the car I should look for possible causes, e.g. would it be a bad or corroded ground connection somewhere, that would feed the indicators, electric door mirrors and intermittent wipers? I also notice that when I activate the central locking, the indicators do not flash on the dash or outside the car. The hazard warning functions fine though. Prior to all this I had not experienced any faults with the electrical stuff, not even any glitchy connection with the steering wheel stalks. All other lights function correctly around the car. Other wiper functions work fine, just not the middle intermittent position.

My MOT is coming up in about three weeks, so I badly need to get it fixed before then. Any help very much appreciated.

If you have a look at the page on the link below you will see that all the bits you are having trouble with are powered by fuses 26 and 27. I'd therefor suggest that you check out those two fuse mounts for corrosion, it may be some stray water got in to the adjacent fuses and are intermittantly cutting in and out! Good luck :)

You should also check whether there is power getting to those fuses.
