wiper mfa stalk help
« on: 18 June 2012, 22:15 »
am going to change my wiper/mfa stalk as mine wont work the wipers propply.
but have found a few on ebay with diferances and not sure if there is diferant ones or these ones have just been taken apart. mines a 95 8v

is there any diferances in year on the fitment or are they all the same?

some of the ones on ebay have one stalk on its own and some have both including the hazzards button. or are the single stalk ones the same but just been taken apart

this is what i mean

single stalk

For the price get the whole thing. Might not be the stalk that is causing the problem.

That's what I would do anyway

True. What els could it be? Could the relay cause it? What is happening is no matter what I click the wiper to it comes on normal speed with 1 click up as it should but if I click down for intermittent it goes to normal speed aswell but if I click it back up to turn it off it don't go off. You have to go to 1 click up then click down to turn it off. And even then it stops where ever it is on the window. So I have to wait for it to to to the bottom of the screen then turn it off. Really anoying.
Do you know wich number the relay for the wipers is? May try that first.
