Back Wiper
« on: 26 March 2010, 17:50 »
Hi all, Recently my back wiper has went all weird, The bit where the water comes out turns with the wiper where as before it didnt. I dont know how it managed to change itself but it isnt as good as it was. It used to just shoot straight up while the wiper moved side to side as u would amagine.

Can anyone help here?

Had this same thing only a few weeks back.  Its broke and needs fixing / replacing before it ruins all the expensive electronics inside the boot.  Do a search on here or google for washer jet following wiper arm.  It's a £60 part and half hours work.

Take the lining off 1st, check if the pipe is loose, thats what happened to mine. If you cant work out how to do it, let me know!
