Have you checked the bonnet catch isn't faulty as the wiper don't work if it's open

Also put it on vcds couldn't get into the wiper part as is a copy and not live but did get into the forced testing which I was able to turn on the washers with the laptop and off again but with the wipers it it just said off and you couldn't change that

Replace the bonnet electrics if you haven't already done so.

It's just the bonnet lock that's held by toque screws that needs replacing  :smiley:
