Clickin when wipers are on!!

[G68RGE]

Hey all!

Everytime the wipers go on theres a distinct click coming from the glove box area. Is this normal, common problem or just Renault??? :dapprove:

Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem and if so are there any ways to cure or solve it? Cheers

[Beef-Mc]

Nope, pretty much stuck with the noise. Just turn your radio up, will drown the noise out...

 

[Lee coley]

[Beef-Mc]

I've blocked mine out as well, same with my sunroof rattling, I don't notice it anymore.

Its the relay on the UCH for the wipers, for some reason renault are determined to use relays that still click rather loudly unlike most other manufacturers (i'm guessing they're cheaper :dapprove.

 

[Josh@Renparts]

I used to like the relay noise for some reason...

 

[StevieP]

This annoys the hell out of me, is there any way of sound proofing the relays or changing them for ones that don't click like time bombs!!?!

 

[Dj Rpm]

They're cheap cars.

Word has it LHD cars are better...

Do you realise the sunroof rattle has a technical note at Renault and dealers will fix it under warranty by putting a rubber pad / sleeve in the catch to stop it happening? 5 minute job...

 

[Reyes]

Does this when you flash too.. or is that just me..?

 

[pinky]

if I have the rear wiper on too..I try to get them going at the same time..otherwise
you get two annoying clicks..ggrrr
