Mk2 wipers

Recommended Posts

Whilst I'm ripping the car apart over the winter I want to sort out the wipers. Mine don't self park, just stop wherever they are when I switch them off. They also stutter when in use.

Any ideas what the cause is likely to be? I assume it must be the motor or the linkages that need a clean.

I don't know for sure but I guess there should be a park switch on/in the motor somewhere? Juddering could well be just a dry screen and sticky wiper rubbers.

Juddering is normally dry screen or worn blades.

 

The switch should have 3 blades (most replaced with a 2 blade) On the back of switch upright facing you :-

Top left spade = Black to earth
Top right spade = Red
Bottom left spade = Black to motor

I'll pull the switch out and have a check on the wires. Mine is slightly different as I turned the washer pump into electric by fitting a push to make switch in the back of it so when you push the knob in it acticated teh pump. That was a few years ago and i must have been bored that weekend!
