Rear wiper not working ?.
« on: August 09, 2010, 07:00:29 pm »
Was fine first thing today when it was raining. Just been out & now nothing ??, not even when i select reverse. Fronts work & wash fine. Checked the fuse blue 15amp i think from what i can make out in the hand book but its not blown ?. My mate who is a vw tech has just gone on holiday today.
Thanks in advance,Steve.

My money's on the wiper motor having given up the ghost. Has the rear wiper been a bit erratic recently?

Is the tailgate shut properly? I thought mine had packed up once but it turned out I hadn't shut the boot properly.

I had this for about a week on my old 06 GTI, it wouldn't do a thing then one day shortly after cleaning the car it started working again. They seem to confuse themselves now and again. Sorry I can't be anymore help.

...........spot on. The valater had done my seats but had been in the boot as well & can't have shut it properly  :grin:. I only put it in the garage last night so the warning light didn't come on.
Chucked my kit in the boot to come home & tried it & works as before, what a t*t i'am should have checked the hatch first  :grin:  :laugh:
