Get an albanian to lye on your roof with a squeegee and wipe

My linkages have disconnected/broken to, much job to change/fix them?

sounds like your relay is gone, its behind the cover on the left hand side of the dash, blue relay iirc ;)

im 99% sure im right btw ;)

could be mate.

however i had the exact same problem as the op and i changed numerous wiper motor mechanisms and indicator stalks. the problem turned out to be the relay, quite a common issue tbh

Just wondering OP, or anyone else thats had this problem etc..

Do your wipers not work at all..Front and back, Including washers?

I've got the same problem..and haven't got to the bottom of it yet.
Changed the stalk and it had a new wiper motor 6 months ago.

so, the its likely to be the fuse or relay? :)

Sorry for thread takeover x

they won't. sit in the car with the ignition on, and when you put the stalk up one notch (intemittant) you should hear the relay click under the glovebox

no, if the relay broke they just wouldn't work full stop, due to the way relays work.
