Post by baywest »

im not very electrical iv now not got a horn, my wipers are not working all the time . sunday in the rain thay didn`t start at first then thay stopped
and started , i had my camper grit blasted about three years ago before it was resprayed could some of the grit get in the switch or could it be the wiper motor , the fuse to the horn is ok as thr reverse lights work thay are on the same one

sounds like a dodgy wiper motor yes...
But it also sounds like a poor earth or connection

when they suddenly stopped ...did they park?
