i belive the black one with 409 on it is for the fueling iirc so can rule that one out.


all the relays should have a part number on it which you can check to see what its the relay for.

EDIT: just noticed the part number is veiwable and went on google and searched it and it came up with fuel pump relay

Cheers for the reply I did a quick search and think its the big brown. The prob may not be the relay but just wanna rule it out is there a way of testing it to see if it has power ? Also does the relay operate the front and back or just the back as the front wipers are fine

not sure weather its one relay for back and one for front, would imagine it is though,

find out the output terminals and put a probe on it to see if your getting an output when the wipers are turned on, if not then theres either a fault with the relay or something before the relay.

I'm hoping its either the relay or a broken wire does the relay just pull out ? Sorry if these are stupid questions but I've 0% knowledge about cars

Change Relay 100

My Wipers, indicators and heater fan all stopped working and after several searches and
assistance on here i just changed the lot.

When i got to No.100 everything started working fine :wink:

Got down under to to relays and there is clicking from the front wiper but when I did the back wiper there was no noise no clicking should I put it down to a relay fault then ?

Pic of wiper relay, I've also read there isn't a relay for rear wiper but this is the relay for windscreen wipers so why wouldn't it operate the rear one too?...

Thanks for that I've read somewhere there isn't one for the rear but been told there is quite confusing I don't have the 377 black one on my relay board the one I have is a brown 603 but when I operate the rear wiper stalk I can't hear no clicking ?

Have you checked the wiper motor hasn't suffered from the infamous rust problem?

Yeah a bloke at work put a feed to the wiper and it moved as I should be .tested the black/brown wire from and he said there was no power from it if that makes sence I've found a breakers near me that's got a new relay I can buy numbered 377 but I don't have a 377 on my board the relay on mine is numbered 603 it's a brown one
