    Hi Stuart02

    I did a hard reset over the weekend but this didnt resolve the problem.

    We have tested the signal being received from the wiper switch so quite happy this is ok. Also, i can hear the relays clicking when i move the wiper switch.

    As for the swearing, i have thrown plenty of that at the wipers but they are being pretty stubborn. Will probably continue this exercise though just incase they decide to respond and start working.!!

    I'm thinking i might re run the wiring as a just in case so can then rule that out.

    In case the relay has failed contacts I suggest that you jump the wiper relay to see if they then work, or at least swap the relay with another.

    With the relay jumpered, is there power at the wiper motor?

    Did you check the bolts that hold the wiper arms in one of the threads I linked???
    Ive seen that problem in other vehicles.

    I will be having another go at fixing this again at the weekend so will try replacing / swapping the relays to see if this is the problem.

    We have already bypassed the relays to confirm the wiper motor works, but will go through all these tests again just to confirm.

    I have tried the bolts but this didn't work either.

    Will post an update after the weekend, hopefully with a positive outcome!!

    Given Murph hasn't been on in over 7 months your chance of getting a reply is slim.
    I'm "ass-u-me-ing" you have the same problem? Have you scanned for fault codes?
