Rear wiper not working!!!
« on: 14 September 2004, 09:52 »
I'm sure this has been asked a thousand times, my rear wiper has stopped working.  When i switch it on i can hear the relay clicking.  Knowing my luck its going to be the wiper motor!  Is there anything else I can try?

Cheers everyone,
Matt

Take the plastic trim off and have a look!  Grease it all up and refit.  Also try taking the wiper off the spindle and greasing that up too.

Sounds like the perfect excuse to have it removed and smoothed over then maty  ;)

On the MK2 the stock position is 10'oclock on the glass, VW did wind tunnel tests and that position gives the least drag :)
