Title: Windscreen washer
Post by: jimojameso on 01 February 2010, 17:07
Hello everyone

As soon as i get one thing fixed another thing bloomin breaks. Ha ha.  :shocked:

Now sometimes randomly or if i use any function on the right stick such as the MFA button the windscreen decides to clean itself. Its good because i always have exceptionally good visiblity but is annoying as i will be filling it up with fluid every five seconds.

It doesn't seem like the stick is stuck pulled forward or anything. Anyone got any ideas why it keeps coming on?

Cheers

James  :smiley:

Sounds to me like you have a problem with the stalk contacts... or a knacked stalk...

Take the steering wheel off, remove cowling, take out the three screws that hold the stalks in place & and have a look at the stalk and its contacts... try cleaning them with some WD40..

Pretty easy to do!!
