I think I know what it is, switch the wipers & ignition on and wiggle each relay in the fusebox till the wipers start going, the X-over relay is likey the problem. I find that mine is a little loose in the socket so if I do any work on the fusebox everything stops working

Did you have smoke coming from your dash? I did when this happened to me. Turned out the dim/dip wire had shorted and taken out my ingnition power circuit with it. Was a auto electrician job for me! Here is some more details on the problem in my dub project section.

It starts at the bit marked 6th July 2005
