Window wipers

[l40mmy]

As some of you may be aware leicester had a good dwn pour of snow over last day or so!

Question has anyone else let there other halves clear the window screens and instead of using common sence and clearing the window before using the wipers?

Mso basically my wipers no longer work any ideas???

Cheers

My wife phoned me a couple of days ago asking how to reattach the wiper. (I had already gone to work) I asked her why she was asking.
She had jumped in the car whilst it was still very frosty, the first thing she did was switch the wipers on.
They were frozen to the screen.... she had managed to rip the wiper clean off!!

Have you used your common sense and checked the fuses and relays associated with the wipers yet ?

This would be the first thing to check. The guy I work with came in on friday flapping that his wipers didn't work. I asked if he had checked the fuse, he hadn't so I checked it and it was blown.
He was going to book it in at VW!!

I will be checking all fuses tomoz was a bit late in the day to check fuses in an unlit car park!

So fuses are the answer neways!!

They might not be, but they'd be the the first thing to check over.

Any further problems, come back for round 2 :approve:

Under the bonnet or inside the car?

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

Yeah, one of those

Pass... Never had a problem with mine. It should say on the lid of the box under the bonnet, and on the cover of the one inside the cabin.

Think they are in the ones in end of the dash.

Passenger end of the dash. Pretty big cover. Can't miss it Which of the many fuses however - no idea!
