Possessed rear wiper!

Post by Iandux »

Hi, All

My rear wiper has a mind of its own, deciding to wash/wipe on its own at various times.

Otherwise, it works perfectly when using the stalk controls.

Diagbox isn't throwing up any faults - anyone any ideas?

My X7 does this occasionally too. Never found out why as it's so intermittent. The most annoying thing is that it can empty the washer bottle. Fortunately it's not a frequent occurrence.

We had a C3 where the rear wiper would move as it pleased and not always parking in the right place. Replaced it with another used one and then ok.
