iow_corrado_g60 0 Posted January 3, 2006 Hello lads happy new year! Now my problem on Christmas day I come out to turn the engine over ready for the drive to my mums and as soon as I leant in to start her up the window washer fluid comes on splashing me right in the face! anyway I get in and try a number off things to stop it anyway it wouldn’t stop by this time there washer fluid everywhere so I turn the engine off and then back on still no bloody good! By now have lost all washer fluid and motor is whining and wipers wont stop so I turn the engine off! And lift the bonnet and disconnect the washer bottle and the lupo wiper motors! And drive to my mums! Boxing day comes I look at the stalk a seems ok parking in normal position etc, connect everything back up same problem so then I just disconnect the washer fluid bottle but the wipers just stay on a constant slow speed can anyone help please! Is it a relay and where can I get one???????????? :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dazzyvr6 0 Posted January 4, 2006 sounds like you have got a short in your wiper stalk,you could try cleaning the copper contacts inside the stalk,failing that then a new one is needed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil K 0 Posted January 4, 2006 This is only a guess but I say it's the stalk mech... can you try a different stalk? I think the ones off a mk2 golf will work... HTH Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iow_corrado_g60 0 Posted January 4, 2006 cheers lads i know i said this already but there is a relay for washer/wiper on euro car parts would it not be that, thats is gone? also will check the stalk on weekend? does anyone know how much wiper stalk is please?

GIXXERUK 0 Posted January 4, 2006 pull the wash/wiper relay and take the cover off and check the contacts (give them a clean) also check for dry joints on the spades but its more likely to be the stalk imo , remove the cowl and check/clean the copper contacts and look for any broken ones hth Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
