Guest nigelwickenden Posted February 1, 2004 Report Posted February 1, 2004 Help My front windscreen wipers have started to operate on their own. All the time the ignition is on they are working. Going to stupid speed when the washer applied . Even when fuses 8 and 29 for wipers pulled they still operate. Only when the relay is pulled from level 3 on the fuse box (What a pain to get to) do they stop Not an auto electrician so no real clues Help Quote
seatkid Posted February 2, 2004 Report Posted February 2, 2004 When they come on do they come on continually or just a single wipe? Quote
Guest SA Intruder Posted February 2, 2004 Report Posted February 2, 2004 Sounds like GEM or stick. Did something bring it on? Quote
Guest nigelwickenden Posted February 2, 2004 Report Posted February 2, 2004 Had really bad rain on Saturday PM, Went into town Sunday coming out of a roundabout wipers went crazy faster than normal fat wipe. and when washers used even faster still so much so that the blades kept bashing each other as it was out of sequence. and whilst sitting still it rocked the whole car Quote
seatkid Posted February 3, 2004 Report Posted February 3, 2004 What year and model is this haunted vehicle? Or do I have to gaze into my crystal ball? ;) I forsee 3 possibillities:- an (intermittent) short in the wiring loom to the motor a faulty wiper motor module (which can be changed seperately from motor itself) a faulty GEM and soon youre going to meet a tall dark handsome stranger.... ;) Quote
Guest nigelwickenden Posted February 3, 2004 Report Posted February 3, 2004 The model is a 2000 1.9 TDI Quote
