How do i
« on: 29 November 2012, 13:11 »
I'm gonna check 1 more time to try and find a broken wire in my boot lid for my back wiper but how can I get access to more wiring as in the rubber gromit there's not much to play with

there are some threads on the maintenance for that mate, i normally just start yanking bits off and hope for the best if not look for the thread for replacing your arial  :wink:

Can't see anything regarding the pillar would it be just clipped on or screwed

Cheers for that James much appreciated ill have a gamble at it tomorrow surely if a wire has broken I should find it from the pillar upto the gromit but all the wires are wrapped it some fabric kinda tape if I take the tape off will it be ok to tie back together with insoluation tape after I've finished ? And if I can't find any break will it be worth replacing the relay ?

All the replays I've seen are Numb 377 I don't have a 377 the one I've got is a brown one numbered 603 !

hmmm not sure about that, though ive just had a word with my girlfriends cousin who has a 2l and he had the same prob so he just took the rear wiper off to save on the ache of pulling his interior apart. thats as much as i could get out of him and his story  :laugh:

should be fine with insulation tape as long as its doing the same job, and have you taken the motor off to see if there are any loose connections?

and also remember there is a difference on this forum with ppl input being that for 1.8t's as well so some parts may look different but to be absolutely sure you should try and find a VAG group specialist who can give you free advice as well

and is this your part?

and also have a look at this
