Title: Back wiper
Post by: difficultrogue on 27 February 2008, 18:30

On the indicator lever, i pushed it forward to wipe back window and the washer and wiper came on, but the wiper didnt stop. Every 5 seconds or so it went off and i couldnt see how to stop it. It only stopped once i turned vehicle off and got in it again, it was like it reset itself and had stopped. Any ideas???

yeah its a crap function this, what u wanna do, if your just wanting to do a sweep of the window is flick it once then again straight after, then it will stop... hope u understand what i mean

It is a crap function that is on the Polo as well. Once it has finished its cycle of four wipes press again. The only problem is that the water washer works too and then you have streaks down the glass. If only you could operate the wiper only

Used to really piss me off when I got the GTi, that much so I READ THE USER MANUAL....

Push lightly to wipe with no water or hard to use the jet & press again to turn it off....


That's all there is too it! :rolleyes:
