Wipers don't park

Post by whitley »

T25, 1986, 1.9 Water. My wipers don't park! Fitted new relay. Any ideas?

Some one may correct me, but I think fuse 17 is the self parking circuit, and is separate to the 'normal' one.

Sounds like a problem with the wiper switch. I'm assuming when you put the wiper switch to off the wipers just stop in whatever position they are at. Does waggling the wiper switch make any difference? Also, check connection behind switch as this may have worked lose.

The self park function should be a part of the wiper unit itself. Nothing to do with the switch.
