Title: wiper motor trouble?
Post by: alexb on March 14, 2004, 02:24:13 PM
Hi Guys

Since last week my windscreen wipers haven\'t been working as they should...

Basically they seem to drag across the screen, accompanied by a god-awful screeching sound :(

They seem worse the faster the wiper is set to, i.e not good on intermediate, bad on normal continuous and barely making it over the screen and back on hi-speed continuous.

I\'ve just replaced the blades with no improvement so I\'m thinking it\'s the wiper motor that\'s on it\'s way out - does this sound right from the description?

I\'ll give Andrew at Jimmy\'s a call tomorrow and see what the damage will be...

Cheers, Alex
