One click down for intermittent, sometimes (very rarely) works. Usually just goes wipe#click#wipe#click at usual slow speed. I can hear the relay clicking between every wipe.<br /> <br /> Up two positions to slow wipe, nothing.<br /> <br /> Up again to fast and that works ok.<br /> <br /> Switch off and it parks with the blades about 20 dgrees above horizontal. Same for wash/wipe, parks in the wron place.<br /> So...more than one fault or just a dicky front wiper relay?<br /> <br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;Simon Baxter:&#039;&#039;&#039; Motor relies on the slow speed working for it to park.<br /> <br /> Intermittant is also on the shunt winding.<br /> <br /> When you&#039;re on high speed and turn it off it slows down to the shunt winding then parks.<br /> <br /> If the motor is knacked and the low speed doesn&#039;t work then it will never work on intermittent, nor will it park.<br /> <br /> Try a relay but suspect the motor is kerfurtled!<br /> <br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;SilverBullet:&#039;&#039;&#039; Thanks Simon, I swapped the relay and normal wiper service is resumed :)</div>
